Question #1
Is there a way to use the Emailer files off of a computer running in
firewire target disk mode on another computer? I use my laptop (iBook G4 running OS 10.4.8) as my primary email machine. I'd like to then hook it
up to my desktop machine (PowerMac G4 MDD 2003 running OS 10.4.8) and
take advantage of the larger monitor, keyboard, better egros, etc... when I'm at my desk. When I hook the laptop up to the desktop using Firewire
Target Disk mode and launch the copy of Emailer (or open the Mail
Database) on the laptop I get the expected mail. I can read and write
mail offline just fine. However I can not connect to send or receive mail
from my mail server. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Emailer doesn't care where it is run from. However, make sure you move the Prefs file from the Claris folder in your System folder into the Emailer application folder. That will make sure that when you run Emailer, you maintain all the correct prefs for that copy of Emailer.

Once you do that, if problems continue, then report back what error you are getting when you try to send or receive email and maybe one of us can help you further.

Question #2
Is the version 2.0v3p3 patch mentioned in the Claris Emailer Wikipedia
entry available anywhere (still)? Judging by the description, this patch
might correct several problems I've had to work around for the past
several years. Reversing the POP/SMTP order alone would be a huge help
and if the SMTP Authentication works for me it would greatly streamline
the retrieval of my mail.

Yes, it is still available on my web site at <http://www.mythtech.net: 8081/emailer> Note the port change at the end of the domain part. Without that, you won't be able to reach my web server right now.
