Eudora may be the best email client in the Windows world (and possibly
the Macintosh world, too), but it is by no means superior to KMail.
More than anything else, Eudora's lack of support for topic threads is
a killer. There are some other features it has that I'd like to see in
KMail, but I would not trade threads for any of those features.

As for typeface sizes, I have to configure every application I use,
because they always default to unreasonably large type sizes. And why
anyone would put up with serifed fonts for text on a computer display
of a mere 100 dpi is beyond me. They're a total impediment to
legibility at low display resolutions.
