| '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penelope_%28e-mail_client%29 Penelope]''' is an open source extension to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Thunderbird Mozilla Thunderbird] mail application. | | Eudora 8 development evolved into being '''Eudora OSE'''. Eudora OSE evolved from an experimental add-on Penelope - a re-imagining and re-implementation of classic Eudora features on top of the Mozilla Thunderbird codebase. |

|
| Qualcomm's intention with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penelope Penelope] project is to join the Eudora® user experience with the Mozilla platform. We intend to produce a version of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eudora_%28e-mail_client%29 Eudora] that is open source and based on [[Main_Page|Mozilla]] and [[Thunderbird]]. It's '''''not''''' our intention to compete with Thunderbird; rather, we want to complement it.
| | Eudora and OSE no longer exist, nor is there support. Users might instead try [https://getthunderbird.com Thunderbird]. |
|
| |
|
| Qualcomm is committed to both preserving the Eudora user experience and to maintaining maximum compatibility, for both developers and users, with Thunderbird. It is our goal to build a single development community around Thunderbird and Eudora, so that both mailers advance faster than they previously have.
