Hi Erin,
I don't use emailer, so I may be way out, but . . . assuming that
emailer has similar facilities to eudora:
On eudora there is a setting that allows the user to chose whether to
leave mail on the server once it's been read. If emailer has such a
setting, this may be your problem. If you don't want to see the old
mail again, ask your server gauleiter to delete the old mail file.
By the way, the NT drones that run your servers should not have to
load "Mac-specific software" on their beloved box. We run a unix box
as a pop server and there's no problem.
