Unless you're using an IMAP mail server instead of a POP one...since last time
I looked, Eudora/Mac _still_ didn't support IMAP...If this has changed it's
been in the last few months, and I haven't heard any announcements.

Oooohh don't get me _started_ on Pegasus Mail, feh, ptui!
Actually, in later versions, MIME has been default. We've been using it for
years and had few problems with various attachments...in fact most of the
problems we've had have been people on the recieving end not being able to
understand mime.
