...to which I replied (off-list):

Em@iler 2.0v3 supposedly runs inside Classic.  If it's the only thing 
holding you back, then go for it!  Classic runs fairly well these days, 
you know.

In addition, you can try Netscape 7.1 for your AOL mail.  I find the 
Mozilla e-mail client to be a great thing, and Netscape 6+ is all based 
off Mozilla.  It's got junk mail filtering and myriad other features 
that weren't even really thought of when Em@iler was being written.  Of 
course, it's got all the Netscape/AOL advertizing built-in that you'd 
expect from an AOL-sponsored software package, but that's not too hard 
to clean up.

Get yourself to OS X, you'll be glad you did.
