I use Eudora 5.2 for Windows for all email, in Russian and otherwise. The 
only thing that's awkward is that in order to switch form reading email in 
KOI8 to reading email in Windows Cyrillic, you have to reselect a font. 
There's no way to select a different encoding. Selecting a font is three or 
four mouseclicks.

Don't know about the Eudora for Mac.

Feel free to ask specific questions off-list.
