I find it very easy to use. I just type what I want in the create signature
box, name it then chose the one I want to use from the drop down box. Much
easier than Outlook IMO. I'm forced to use Outlook at work, so I've used
both.

I've had it handle a few hundred e-mails per day. Brings them, in sorts
them out, lets me me know which mailboxes have mail. Couldn't ask for more.

Attachments are still with the message. When I'm reading the message, I can
just click on the attached file icon and the appropriate program opens -
just like in Outlook.

I've never had a file name changed by Eudora. If I get a second attachment
with the same name, Eudora adds a 1 or a 2 to differentiate and not
overwrite. That's the only change.
Not trying to get you to change your e-mail client, but others who might
want to consider Eudora as an alternative should know the facts from a long
time and very satisfied user.
