This review is from: Claris Em@iler Companion (Claris Press) (Paperback)

Claris Emailer v2 is the quinessential favorite, but legacy emailer, for many Mac users. This book does a good introduction in showing you how to use the basics of Claris Emailer. It is convenient to have on your bookshelf and to loan to friends. Recall that there are adequate acrobat PDF files on the web for a Users Guide and Getting Started.It does not, however, go into the nitty gritty details on set up and conversions. Go to fogcity.com , the actual developer of the product for additional info and many shareware utilities, including AppleScripts for enhanced capabilities and info sharing with Palm Desktop (PowerMac only) (nee Claris Organizer v2 for 68K users), AppleWorks5 (nee ClarisWorks 4), FileMaker Pro 4 and other legacy Claris and current AS compliant software. MacOS 8.5 AppleScript can enhance this legacy product to beyond your wildest dreams, yet this book does not even begin to touch this capability. It doesn't also cover in any depth what an eMail administrator needs to know and does not cover Claris OfficeMail v1. This book has been available on eBay and other closeout computer book sellers.
