Well, it has been covered in the past, but it never hurts to repeat, so I'll take first crack. I don't have a really good reason other than I like the look and feel of emailer. I tried Outlook Express for a while, but came back to Emailer. I can't recall exactly what it was I didn't like about OE, but it just didn't seem so easy to use. Maybe its just a matter of my using Emailer for so long that I'm used to it, but it does everything I want, and does it easily. But I should confess that I have not yet jumped to OSX either, so I'm not the sort who has to be on the cutting edge. >I've been using it for years, but it's getting frustrating dealing with >mail servers that require authentication. It seems inevitable that >Emailer's days are numbered (on my computer, at least). Luckily, I have not (yet) had to deal with a mail server that requires authentication. I guess my cable company is friendly in that respect. >(And why do you have AOL... that's >another story, I guess.) As a matter of fact, I asked that very question a few months ago. After reading all the posts on this list that mentioned troubles dealing with AOL, I asked why people bothered. As I recall, the two most frequent answers were: 1. Have many business or personal contacts who know the AOL address, and don't want to lose touch with them. 2. Travel a lot on business, and AOL access numbers are available everywhere.
