My experiences with import/export of mail messages over
the years has led me to believe that the best way of all
is to have an IMAP-based mail account and simply keep one's
mail on there. Then all your mail programs use the same
mail store and there never is any import/export to do again.
And in your existing situation, the solution's the same -
*get* an IMAP account, log onto it using Eudora, move all
your existing mail over to the account and you are then
done - point Mail.app at the account and all the mail is
there.
This has worked much better for me than any import/export
(like the ones over the years which have mangled dates
in the headers, lost attachments, etc. etc.).
Apple's .mac mail account is IMAP, but it's a relatively
expensive one. I highly recommend Fastmail.FM, but there
are others that folks have been quite happy with.
