You know, Emailer doesn't actually pay the least bit of attention to 
whatever serial number you put into it when you install it. Heck, you can 
just leave that field blank and it won't care.

And I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't think Apple gives a darn if you "pirate" 
yourself a few extra installs of it. In fact, I have it on really good 
authority that Apple's whole attitude towards Emailer is to simply ignore 
anyone that brings it up in conversation. They don't want to spend any 
time thinking about it at all. I'm pretty much 100% positive, that as 
long as you keep buying new Macs, Apple will go ahead and tell you that 
you are free to install Emailer on all the Macs you own. I'm sure they 
will happily grant you an unlimited license for your own use of Emailer 
if that is what it takes to get you to continue to buy Macs.

But hey, you might have issues with using a copy that isn't officially 
legal. You could always email Apple and ask them permission to install a 
2nd copy of Emailer on your home Mac. They will probably ask you why you 
don't like Mail, and you can offer to give them your list of likes and 
dislikes in exchange for permission to install another copy of Emailer. 
I'm pretty sure they will go for that deal.
