I used Eudora for a long time.
I made the switch to Thunderbird quite some time ago, and was able to
import my email fine. I'm sure I looked to see what Thunderbird could
import and exported from Eudora in that format. Attachments are
important to me too, and worked as it should.
Thunderbird is better now than it was, but it is still a memory hog.
It's consuming 125 megs on my machine right now. No clue why it would
need even half of that.

Recent releases have fixed that pretty well;
response time is pretty much instantaneous for most operations. (for me at least, and I
have GIGANTIC mail spools)
Oh, I'm still stuck in Eudora 7.1.0.9 (Windows circa 2006). I tried to import
my ~8 gig of mailboxes into Thunderbird a year or two ago but it did not
seem to be able to handle it. Maybe it was all the attachments and the
way Eudora handled "embedded" objects in HTML-ish email.
