It has 2 major issues for me that I have reported to Qualcomm over and over again.

1. Dragging mail between IMAP folders does not retain any attachments to the message. This is part of Euroda's principle of copying attachments local when copying a message

2. When sending an HTML formatted e-mail, if I go into another mail client other than Eudora and try to view the e-mail I sent (from my sent folder) (I have a rule set up to move the mail that is being sent into a SENT folder on the server), the message shows all the tags because there is a header that Eudora is not writing.

Other than that, the SPAM filter is awesome! When you make a message in your junk folder as not being spam, it moves it back into your inbox automatically, which is very cool. Wish Mail.app did that!

Indeed it does say that the playlist is 9.99. BUT, when I tried to buy it, I get an error #5002 AND get charged for the $9.99.

This will be nice. But I hope work is already underway. I have just switced over to Tiger Mail.app and love it. After 10 years of Eudora. A little sad.

Wish I had read the comments here before trying to purchase the Maroon 5 playlist. I too got charged the $9.99 even though I got an error message and never got to download anything. Trouble is (okay I'll admit I was stupid not to look), I didn't notice that I got charged the first time and tried to download it a second time... and got charged another $9.99. Obviously, I've filled in one of Apple's customer support forms. We'll see what happens in the next 48 hours.

Don't even like maroon 5, but $10 for 100 songs is awesome. Too bad I'm out $9.99 now though :-

I got an email back from them about the error...they're claiming ignorance of it. There's no line item for the order in my order history, I have no songs to download, my $9.99 has been refunded, and the price is $118. Looks like they're not going to honor it. They should. Hell, when airlines screw up and offer flights for $2, they have to honor it.
