Emailer was end-of-lifed long before Mac OS X was sufficiently formed to be a factor in any thinking. Any decision process behind that was *strictly* rational. Just because that process wasn't visible to those of us who weren't sitting around the conference room table at the time, doesn't make it any less rational. > As much as we love (and depend) on Emailer is was EOL'ed some years > ago and it will NEVER be resurrected.
