Fascinating! This actually works. Thanks to all of you who replied.

I tried to get pine4 at first, but the install bombed on the sed scripts in
its Makefile. So, I got elm instead, and that is what I am using at this
moment. It can read all of my Eudora-stored messages, straight from the
Windows formatted disk. Gosh, this FreeBSD is absolutely amazing! I think
I'm in love! :-)

P.S. I'll still have to figure out how to do certain things, such as have it
use a different From field since I am subscribed to this list as
zen@buddhist.com, and, most importantly, how to receive messages from my ISP.
Then I can toss Eudora forever. Did I say I love FreeBSD? :-)
