Eudora Keybindings
From MozillaWiki
Penelope adds a new settings panel, appropriately called 'Penelope':
This panel presents 2 options; Shortcuts (key bindings) to use, which is covered here, and the [UI style].
"Use Shortcuts"
You can choose whether to use Eudora-like key shortcuts, or use the standard Thunderbird Shortcuts. This page will not attempt to list all the shortcuts, but will list some of the most-common.
