Well, Emailer is a bit "long in the tooth" and requires a few "work 
arounds" for those of us old folks who insist on keeping it chugging 
along. Version 2.0v3 was the last one made before Claris Corp was 
reabsorbed by Apple. It is no longer available as a commercial product, 
though there are probably "bootleg" copies around.

Entourage is a bit of bloatware, rather typical of the evil empire, but I 
believe that some of the folks who worked on versions of Emailer also 
worked on the development of Entourage. If you paid big $$ for Entourage 
or Office, and don't need access to AOL mail (though I believe that there 
is even a way for Entourage to access AOL these days - haven't tried it), 
why switch to an older, not supported mail client?
