How to edit email templates without the mail editor plugin?

I've installed the mail editor module for drupal in order to edit the templates for emails that my site sends out and I get this message after enabling the module: "This version is incompatible with the 6.16 version of Drupal core." How do I work around that? Do I just keep trying older versions of the plugin or is the开发者_如何学运维re another plugin I can use instead?

Sounds like you downloaded the 5.x version of Mail Editor, or a really outdated version of the 6.x branch. I downloaded the Dev release (the only 6.x release available): it enables fine, and there's nothing in the code to restrict minor version numbers.

Out of curiosity, I don't see anything in Mail Editor that core's User settings page (admin/user/settings) doesn't do. Is there something more to it?
