Well, as have been said before on this list, chances are that if a new version of Emailer ever sees the day, under whatever name, AOL connection code would have been lifted out due to the fact that AOL have copyright on that code and are unlikely to lease it anew to a third party again. At least this is what I believe. Let me also say, as a very happy non AOL user, that even without AOL support Emailer still rocked back in 1998 and the years before that and it's still in there, but perhaps now more just chugging along with the help of great utilities like Baton Mail and nice knowledgeable people on a mailing list. That it's actually faster and use less resources in classic, than does PowerMail 3.1.3, my current email client, natively in OS X 10.2.x. While that speaks with some detriment of PM and to the magnitude of the work the people with Andy Tevanian have done with X, it also tells me that Emailer was an excellent coded application. I really think his probably means that Emailer could thrive in a Carbon version, even without AOL support. Emailer, as a coded product remains a big inspiration to me. And when I'm now downplaying the importance of AOL, let me take the opportunity to say that I never will understand why you AOL'ers just don't remove that extra "Re:" After all, you, or the network of your choice, put it there. Probably, I'm not doing something similar that confuses other people. ;) ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
