Eudora Internet Mail Server 2.0 Released


Qualcomm has released the final version of the $199 Eudora Internet Mail Server 2.0 (EIMS), which provides significant enhancements over the still-available free EIMS 1.2. Important improvements include the capability to handle multiple local domains, prevent spammers from relaying through your mail server, administer the server remotely, connect intermittently, and make user information available via Ph. For $299, you can purchase EIMS 2.0 plus five licenses for Eudora Pro. EIMS 2.0 requires a 68030 Mac or higher running System 7.1 or later with Open Transport 1.1.2 or later. A 60-day expiring demo version is also available as a 1.2 MB download. Overall, we’ve been impressed with EIMS 2.0 in our testing; however we have two caveats. First, we’re still working with the developer to track down an unusual late-beta bug that crashes one of our servers. Second, Qualcomm’s online purchases are available only in the U.S. and Canada right now and work through Software.net. Our one experience with Software.net’s unlocking scheme and our subsequent interaction with customer service was terrible. Our advice: save all email relating to your order in case problems develop.
