Eudora was probably the best mail application I ever used back when it was free. When Qualcom bought out the developers they made it expensive, complicated, and full of bugs. I abandoned it  at that time, but remember the old Eudora with some fondness.

Years ago I used Eudora and occasionally had somewhat similar encoding problems with some messages. I always just assumed the people I corresponded with were incoherent idiots, but eventually it became clear that Eudora should probably have been named Dysdora. Solutions never became manifest to me. In the end, it dorve me to suicide. I should have thought the bugs would have been worked out of Eudora by now; it was more than ten years ago that I used it, well before my untimely demise.
