Mozilla & Gecko clones Qualcomm on Wednesday joined up with the Mozilla Foundation to announce it is transitioning Eudora into an open source e-mail client that will be based upon Thunderbird. In turn, all future versions of Eudora will be free and Qualcomm will discontinue the current paid client. Although it may seem like Eudora is simply abandoning its e-mail software, which has a small but strong following of loyal users, the company claims the Thunderbird-based client will retain "Eudora's uniquely rich feature set and productivity enhancements".

Thanks, BUTT FACE. I read the f--king article.

What I was saying is that, having not used Eudora for at least a f--king century, if this means that the open source Eudora will be of the same functionality as Thunderbird but is essentially just rebranded, or if Qualcomm is going to get off their asses and actually give us some decent code instead of basically stealing Thunderbird and sticking a Eudora logo on it.

Thanks for being a complete asshole.
