I have had good success by first logging in as the new user, then copying all parts of the Claris Emailer program & files to my home folder. Since eMailer saves the mail in a subfolder of it's application, it makes sense to me to treat the whole thing like a document. Each person gets their own Claris Emailer program & files.
If that doesn't work out well yet, then run Disk Utility to "Repair permissions" and also select the Emailer application folder and "Get Info" and check the permissions, (as you did before) making sure that the current user has read/write access to them. I never yet had to change the permissions of any folders I dragged into the OS 9 System folder. Hope this helps.
