Is this work related to the Betterbird project?

No I don't think so.

Yes you're correct, having just re-read the Betterbird FAQs.

Not sure why they don't call it MozillaMail...

Well if it turns out to be cr*p, they should rename it ThunderPants ;-)

I wonder if it's connected to Eudora/Eudoramail?

Dunno but I remember well the original Eudora from Clasic Mac days.
