| .ems attachments? Those are probably messages with detached signatures

Long time Eudora user here, bought and registered version 3.0.

About ready to move everything to Mozilla Mail which, when coupled with
enigmail, handles signatures just beautifully.

Can't sing the praises of enigmail at a loud enough volume.  Truly
excellent, and identical on Linux and Windows.

But there's nothing wrong with Eudora's handling of the signature files;
they show as attachments in every mailer I know of.
