Eudora (email software)
Eudora is a widely used
email client for the
operating systems Microsoft Windows and
Mac OS. It also supports several
palmtop computing platforms, including
Newton and the
Palm OS. It was named after
Eudora Welty, who was flattered by the reference. Eudora was developed by Steve Dorner in
1988 as a part of his studies at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Eudora was then acquired by
Qualcomm in
1991.
It pioneered the concept of a folder list pane that was always present.
Originally distributed in both a Light (freeware) and Pro (commercial) product, it is now distributed with three modes: adware, payware (removes ads), and the classic "Light" mode.
The newest version of Eudora (6.0.1) has added support for Bayesian filtering of spam with a feature called SpamWatch.
