GyazMail: the mail client for older Macs
This takes me back to the 10.1/10.2 days, before anyone had invented decent webmail, the days when I still used Eudora and loved it. Passion for Eudora aside, I still experimented with alternative email clients (everybody did, right?), and one of those was GyazMail. It was actually pretty good, at the time, and a serious rival to Apple's then-still-young Mail. In recent years I'd rather forgotten about it, but lo and behold, here it is popping up with new updates. This new release kills a bunch of bugs and tweaks a few features, but what impresses me most is that the update is available for Jaguar users, with a separate (Universal Binary) version for those on 10.3 or later. That's what I call legacy support. If you have a creaky old Mac that still serves you well running one of these older big cats, and you need a mail client for it, GyazMail is well worth a glance.
Mozilla Eudora/Penelope Mail client beta
A while back it was announced that the Eudora mail client was going Open Source and being redone from the ground up using technology from Mozilla Thunderbird on the back end. Now the first beta of Eudora 8, called Penelope, has been released for Mac and Windows. So if you're an old Eudora user with fond memories (or if you're amazingly still using Eudora 7) this is worth checking out. Let us know what you think.The Penelope beta is a free download from Mozilla.[via Daring Fireball]
