395480 - No windows open - many features disabled

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Penelope Graveyard :: Installer, defect)

Description

[Mitra Ardron]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: 8.0.0.b1 (Help/About doesn't exist Eudora/About gives this info)

Nothing seems to open a Window, though things that open dialog's work. In particular Window->Mail&Newsgroups does nothing.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Eudora (copy App from .dmg to Applications directory)
2.Click it
3.Sit and wait, or 
4. Window -> Mail&Newsgroups

Also, a lot of menu options are greyed out. but I presume that is because there is no active mail&newsgroups window.



This is after a new installation, I am using Thunderbird successfully, note that Thunderbird has a LOT of mailboxes in it, most of which were imported from the original Eudora. 

I have gone back to Thunderbird - which still works fine, I am happy to help track this down.
