A reusable application is a package. To use it you need to put the
package name in INSTALLED_APPS and depending if it provides any models
do syncdb after that (for mailer you need that).

Usually there's detailed instructions on what you need to do to get up
and running with a reusable app. But an INSTALLED_APPS entry is common
to all

Sometimes you will see bundles of larger packages containing multiple
apps, like django-cms for example.

In the case of django-mailer it is one package called 'mailer' so you
need to put the package name in your INSTALLED_APPS ('mailer').
