As many of you pointed out, the Eudora program was not the problem.
The Qpopper connection was...

When telnet-ing to the POP-adress:

elg# telnet elg 110
Trying 193.156.28.33 ...
Connected to elg.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
elg#

Obviously, something was wrong.

Solution: Use the CORRECT path to the popper program in the /etc/inetd.conf
file...

Really embarrassing...
