That's not entirely accurate.
Emailer was killed off and replaced by an existing product, Outlook
Express for Mac, for the default email client. A chunk of the Claris
developers when Claris was closed down were hired by MS for the Mac
Business Unit. Some of the key developers of Emailer (notably Jud
Spencer), wrote Entourage.
But neither Outlook Express, nor Entourage were ever previously
Emailer. Entourage was at least written from the ground up by some of
the Emailer developers so you can consider it to be a bit of a
descendant of Emailer.
