Pete, thank you for the news which I think is what loyal end users like me were waiting to hear. Everyone hopes the project will be a successful one and I don't for a moment take away from all the volunteering and hard graft that is going on during testing. I will keep my fingers crossed hoping for the first release maybe first half of next year. My Eudora v4.0+ mailboxes are highly prized and I very much hope to be able to carry them forward to the latest version. More than anything I crave HTML...

I thought my direct question was plain enough. As far as I'm concerned I'm asking it in the correct place. I'm not wanting to get embroiled in an arcane technical mailing list (which I gave up on years ago actually). However I'm not alone in wanting this updated software to succeed and I would be happy to buy a proper licence to extend the life of my paid-for 2002 Eudora 7. Like others I would still like to know the official status of the software or whether the Windows release has been officially...

Is it safe to assume that half a decade later the Eudora/ Aurora email client for Windows is dead in the water? Last I knew was Aurora was nearly ready, with some teaser screenshots published but the focus was on the Mac version instead. IIRC that was a few years ago. The silence has been deafening ever since.

(The Hermes updates you'd have to patch yourself)

I think there was a licensing issue that prevented the X1-enabled version from being downloadable. The freeware version doesn't have it of course. Maybe a registered user might be able to offer the .exe
