[Macpartners] Eudora Retirement Announcement

[Jonathan Hunt]

Good Afternoon,

Information Services and Technology (IS&T) has announced that it will  
retire support for Eudora on December 31, 2006.  For more complete  
details, please see:

	http://web.mit.edu/ist/topics/email/eudora-retire.html

The retirement of support means that IS&T will not release new  
customized Eudora installers, will not test Eudora on upcoming  
operating systems, like Windows Vista, and over time knowledge about  
troubleshooting Eudora problems will degrade.  We will be moving the  
current Eudora installers on the MIT Software Download site to the  
Archive pages.  If you need to access these installers going forward,  
you can find them by clicking on the <Platform> Archive link at the  
bottom of the pages.

We understand that many departments, labs and centers have already  
migrated off of Eudora and that many others have plans to do so this  
summer.  Assistance in migrating to the supported email applications  
of Outlook Express, Outlook 2003 and Apple Mail is available from  
IS&T in the form of onsite help, training courses, documentation and  
walk-in service.  Links to the various services and instructions are  
available at:

This announcement will also appear in the upcoming issue of the IS&T  
Newsletter.

Thank you,
Jon
