Emailer works fine in SheepShaver. I have a presetup version of it on
my emailer web pages.
The TCP/IP seems to work without a problem. If one is using Emailer
for AOL or Compuserve, or dialup, then I can't say if it works at all
as I haven't tested that. But for regular POP based internet email,
it works just fine.
That said, it still can get annoying at best as you are working in a
totally different virtual computer, so although the clipboard seems
to work between the two, things like clicking a URL in Emailer and
having it open your default browser in OS X just don't work. You
would need a different browser running in SheepShaver. Also, moving
downloads between the two can be annoying (although you can setup a
shared folder between OS X and SheepShaver and set Emailer to save
your downloads to that folder. And you can use the same shared folder
to move files you want to attach to emails between the two worlds.
All in all, yes, SheepShaver works, but it rapidly becomes more
headache then it is worth and I think in the end you will just move
on to a new OS X native email client.
