Addeddate Identifier eudoralight3. There are no reviews yet. Eudora was elegant, fast, feature-rich, and could cope with mail repositories containing hundreds of thousands of messages. In my opinion it was the finest email client ever written, and it has yet to be surpassed. I still use it today, but, alas, the last version of Eudora was released in It may not be long for this world.

With thanks to Qualcomm, we are pleased to release the Eudora source code for its historical interest, and with the faint hope that it might be resuscitated. I will muse more about that later. We began it because the internet was a growing and burgeoning place, but email was not really established on the desktop computers that people were using at the time.

It took Dorner just over a year to create the first version of Eudora, which had 50, lines of C code and ran only on the Apple Macintosh. Like many university-produced programs, it was available to anyone for free. Why did he call it Eudora? Dorner was eventually hired by them to continue to develop it, working remotely from his home in Illinois. They knew that the internet would fuel the need for wireless data, and they thought that email would be one of the drivers.

They also thought it prudent to diversify beyond ICs for wireless technology into software applications. Initially Eudora was only used internally at Qualcomm. It was well-received. But I love Eudora!! The Eudora team at Qualcomm expanded quickly from the initial four to a moderately large product group, and at its peak was over 50 people. The Qualcomm version of Eudora was originally available for free, and it quickly gained in popularity. There was this great feeling about the software, and everybody really loved it.

There was still a free version, now supported by advertisements. By , over person-years of development had been invested in the Windows and Macintosh versions. After 15 years, Qualcomm decided in that Eudora was no longer consistent with their other major project lines, and they stopped development.

A likely factor was the increasing adoption of Microsoft Outlook as an email client for corporations. Outlook was preloaded for free on many PCs, and companies often standardized on it along with the rest of the Microsoft suite of office productivity products. Other free email clients were also available.

The last Qualcomm versions of Eudora, 7. A beta of the new version 8. But it was panned by the Eudora faithful, in part because it had both a different look and feel and an incompatible mailbox data format. The production version 1. There are a lot of little things that go on behind the scenes, or at least very subtly visible to the user. The last Qualcomm Windows version of Eudora continues, with some glitches, to work well under Windows The Apple Macintosh version, unfortunately, did not survive the transition to the modern Mac processors and operating systems, and can now only run using emulators.

IDC , Qualcomm claimed Even though it has mostly faded away, Eudora had a lasting impact. There are concepts that we introduced, which we were the first to do, that are now a standard part of any email client out there. The discussion with Qualcomm for the release of the Eudora source code by the museum took five years.

In the end, they decided not to simply grant a license, but to transfer ownership of the code, the Eudora trademarks, the copyrights, and the Eudora domain names to the Computer History Museum CHM. The transfer agreement allows us to publish the code under the very liberal BSD open source license, which means that anyone can use it for either personal or commercial purposes.
