Software-update: Eudora Email 6.2.0.14

Na een relatief korte periode van bèta's heeft Qualcomm nu versie 6.2 van Eudora uitgebracht. Eudora is een e-mailprogramma wat op drie verschillende manieren gebruikt kan worden. Hoe meer men betaalt, hoe meer mogelijkheden er beschikbaar zijn en minder reclame er wordt afgebeeld. Prijzen lopen uiteen van nada, noppes, niets tot en met US$ 49,95. Deze versie komt met het volgende indrukwekkende changelog:

NEW FEATURES

• ScamWatch - Eudora now warns with a tooltip warning when the pointer is moved over a suspicious link and warns with a dialog when a suspicious link is clicked.
• Emoticons - Eudora now supports sending and receiving mail with emoticons.

SSL

• Eudora now uses OpenSSL instead of Certicom's SSL Plus library for SSL negotiations.
• When a server's SSL certificate is rejected for certain reasons (not trusted, expired, etc.) Eudora will now present a dialog asking the user if they want to trust the cert instead of forcing them to navigate a complicated UI to manually trust the certificate.

SECURITY

• Fixed cases where attachments could be spoofed via base64 or quoted-printable encoded (plain-text, inline) MIME parts.
• User is now warned when forwarding an attachment not found in Eudora's attachment directory. See setting in Tools->Options->Extra Warnings "Forward files that are not in the attachment directory". Also controlled by , where 0 means don't warn, 1 means warn (default), and 2 means don't attach.

• Fixed a crash (by updating to libpng 1.2.7) that could occur when displaying an invalid PNG image.
• Eudora now copies text containing colons in a manner that other applications like WordPad will accept.
• Eudora now displays calendar attachments rather than incorrectly deleting them (POP) or displaying in the body of the message (IMAP).

Er is ook een MacOS X versie, vergeet die niet!

Op zich een fantastisch programma. Goede nieuwe features en wijzigingen (o.a. overstap op openssl en de eenvoudiger dialoog bij certificaat "problemen"). Nu nog een up2date Gui mogelijkheid !

Deze versie voelt een stuk sneller aan dan 6.1. Ben ik de enige met die ervaring?
