I’ve been testing a new Mac application called Mailplane this week. I first read about this app on Silver Mac.
I have several Gmail accounts, including some from my Google Apps domains . Checking each account requires repeated cycles of signing in because Gmail can only display a single account in a browser at any one time.
I used to keep Safari and Firefox open so I could see my two main Gmail accounts.
But I really don’t like Safari much.
Mailplane is only in beta, but it really works well. Even if you only have a single Gmail account, Mailplane is worthwhile. It’s a customized web browser that handles your Gmail. Using Mailplane is better than checking Gmail with Outlook or another POP mail reader, as Mailplane is accessing Gmail as a web service.
I’ve got five invitations to try Mailplane. The first five people who post a comment and request an invite, and who link back to this blog, will get the invites.
I do use reCAPTCHA to help keep the spammers away from the comments. Sometimes the images are a bit fuzzy. Just click the arrow icon in the reCAPTCHA box to get a different set of images.
Remember, it’s a Mac app, so Windows users will get no love from Mailplane.
