That rings a bell. I never liked that Eudora removed attachments and
made other modifications to messages in its database. Apple Mail
attachments are kept as part of the original message which is preserved
in its entirety. Wherever the message goes, so do the attachments. So
even messages that are years old still have their attachments.
