Indeed he can.
/mit/jdreed/release-team/eudora/win:
MIT-Eudora402.exe and eudora4xto432updater.exe were what we
distributed in 2000
mit-eudora-5.02r.exe is what we distributed in 2001
mit-eudora-5.2.1a.msi is what we distributed in 2002/3
If you need old versions of KfW, they're also in that directory (v2.0
was 2000, v2.1 was 2001)
/mit/jdreed/release-team/eudora/mac:
mit-eudora-5.01.hqx = Eudora 5.01 for Mac (2001)
mit-eudora-4.0.2.hqx = Eudora 4.0.2 (2000) , after running this, then
run the updater below
eudora_432_updater.hqx = updates 4.0.2 to 4.3.2
eudora-5.2.3.zip = Eudora 5.2.3 for Mac (2003)
NOTE: Everything except 5.2.3 is a classic app, so you need either OS
X 10.3 or a version of 10.4 that was upgraded, not freshly installed.
That's as far back as I can go without finding installers that depend
on net-dist or Win32s. I believe 4.3 was the first version we
supported that included IMAP support.
Testing this on Windows is obviously the priority, followed by 5.2.3
on OS X. I suspect the case can be made to the powers that be that
Classic users are doomed anyway.
