Sounds like you need to upgrade your Eudora; It looks like a standard multipart-alternative message to me. There are charset escapes in the To: and From: headers, which eudora might not know how to process. The text/plain and text/html mime blocks are also base-64 encoded, but Eudora should be able to handle them just fine.
