It does. I took the precaution, way back when I adapted it for OS X back in
OS 10.1, to use Unicode text rather than "string", so the current version
1.1.1 available from
 
 MacScripter.net   <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

works fine with Entourage 2004. Don't forget you can add keyboard shortcuts
if you want: see "About the script menu" in Entourage Help to find out how.

However, it's not going to help at all with HTML messages, since the script
replaces the HTML with plain text. I think you must be remembering this
wrongly: you won't get HTML this way.

I could adjust the script such that you could edit just the subject - not
the content - and then HTML could be preserved. However, I've now discovered
that the script doesn't work at all with IMAP messages, due to a bug, or
limitation, in Entourage  scripting for IMAP. I think that this must always
have been the case, but it's certainly the case in Entourage 2004. I think I
can work around this by not replacing the original message in the "Received
messages" by the edited one. (I'm not quite sure why I did that.)

It might take a little while to make all these adjustments. In particular, I
think the script will need to ask you - when you run it on an HTML message -
if you want to just edit the subject and preserve the HTML - or also edit
the content and thus lose the HTML. I'll make the former the default so you
can press Enter or Return quickly.

Look out for v1.2 soon.

otherwise.
