Bugs:
+ Some nicknames getting dropped from recipient lines. Nicknames cannot
have the following characters in them: @<>()[],"' and space.
If you have any nicknames with one of these characters in them (in the
nickname itself, not the Address(es), you can have anything you want in
the Address(es) part), rename them so that they don't. PC Eudora now
doesn't let you name nicknames with these characters.
+ General nickname weirdness
+ Compact mailboxes sometimes happens when you click another button on the
toolbar of a mailbox

New Features:
+ MIME support (except character sets). Send and receive MIME messages.
There's a new section for the EUDORA.INI file called [Mappings] which
holds info when switching between PC, Mac, and MIME. The format of an
entry in the [Mappings] section looks like:
<dir>=<extension>,<Mac creator>,<Mac Type>,<MIME type>,<MIME subtype>
where <dir> is the direction of the attachment, which can have the
values "in", "out", or "both". Values for Mac and MIME fields can be
blank to match whole categories. Here's a sample [Mappings] section:
[Mappings]
in=txt,,TEXT,,
out=txt,ttxt,TEXT,,
both=doc,MSWD,,,
both=xls,XCEL,,,
both=jpg,,,image,jpeg
both=gif,,,image,gif
both=mpg,,,video,mpeg
There's two new icon switches on composition windows. The MIME switch
tells whether or not attachments should be encoded using MIME if it is
on, or Binhex if it is off. The QP switch tells whether text with
funny characters (> 127) should be encoded using the MIME encoding
quoted-printable. The only reason you would probably want the QP
switch turned off is if you are sending a message to someone who
doesn't have a MIME capable mail reader and the message has some
characters (usually because it's a non-English language) that you
want to be sent raw (not encoded in QP).
With this new support for mappings, old versions of PC Eudora incorrectly
mapped non-text attachments. This means that if you send a non-text
binhex attachment with an old version of PC Eudora to a new version of
PC Eudora (1.4 or above), the new version will decode it incorrectly
because it will be marked as a text attachment (long story shortened).
Bugs:
+ GPF on selecting Cancel when problems with emptying Trash on Quit
+ Some headers needed for a reply (e.g. Reply-To:) that are hidden by
Show All Headers switch causing malformed reply
+ Quitting by using Task List's "End Task" causes GPF
Tuning:
+ Password now encoded with base64 in EUDORA.INI file
+ Message windows opened low enough so that if the main menu is placed at the
top it remains uncovered
