Oh yes ! Always something happening out there that keeps up my
hopes for a resurrected Emailer.
Meantime, I'm trying to content myself with using Mail, ... along
*with*
Emailer (to house Keeper-emails)... whereas Mail keeps filling up and
telling me the mailbox is over-full, so I need delete on a regular
basis.
No, it's not efficient, but sooner or later I'm going to have to upgrade
beyond the PowerPC frame.

Those interested in the resurrection of Emailer (and whatever happened
to that estimable project?) may be intrigued by an article in TidBits.
Adam Engst introduces it with the following heads-up:
Consider yourself a power user when it comes to email? Frustrated by
your current email client? You're not alone. Although the Mac is
home to numerous email clients - Mail, Entourage, Thunderbird,
Eudora, Mailplane, Mailsmith, GyazMail, PowerMail, MailForge,
Outspring Mail, and more - it's almost a given that a power user
will have a set of desires that can't be met in a single program.
That may change, thanks to a grassroots project initiated by a blog
post from NetNewsWire developer Brent Simmons. Within days, the
Email Init mailing list that Simmons set up for discussion of just
what such an email program would entail had received many hundreds
of messages, and debate raged on topics ranging from whether or not
the program should allow multiple instances of a single three-pane
window to the best ways of handling conversation threading. An
initial vision document written by Simmons lays out some of the
decisions made in those early days; presumably subsequent
discussions will generate revisions and refinements.
