Regarding your posting quoted below:
Keeping Eudora on Windows NT is probably a mistake. The Windows NT
Exchange 4.0 e-mail system is very superior to Eudora. I have been
a long time Eudora user and I have switched.
I suggest you take a serious look at features and interoperability
issues between Exchange 4.0 and Eudora on NT 4.0. Keep in mind, I
am suggesting Exchange 4.0, earlier versions of Exchange or MS Mail
are not suitable replacements to Eudora but Exchange 4.0 is a vast
improvement and a top-notch product.

P.S. If for some reason you do not like Exchange 4.0, you have another
alternative in Netscape Navigator which has a very nice e-mail client.
