workhacks.com: Top 3 Gmail Management Apps for Mac
Monday, April 02, 2012
Workhacks.com published a nice article about three Gmail apps for the Mac:
We gave Sparrow and Fluent a try, and although we are full believers in a more streamlined work flow and minimalistic approach to managing email, it is going to be hard to convert us from Mailplane. This is mostly due to the lack of integration with some of our favorite Gmail plugins (of which we have many) such as Find Big Mail, Other Inbox, Rapportive, Taskforce, Boomerang and Attachments.me.
Mailplane 2.5.6 released
Sunday, April 01, 2012
Release notes:
- NEW: Support for the new Gmail attachment uploader featuring a progress bar (doesn't need Flash anymore)
- FIX: Support for Safari 5.2 beta
- FIX: File attachment problems.
- FIX: Discard message (Command-Option-X) opened the new Gmail label menu
- FIX: Save/Discard button
- FIX: Rare crash on startup when using Mailplane on Snow Leopard.

Gmail improvement: Star and label messages before you send them
Monday, March 19, 2012
A very welcome new Gmail improvement!
Have you ever sent an important email that you wanted to follow up on, but a couple days later realized you hadn’t? Starting today, you can organize your messages before sending them by starring them or adding a label, making it easy to keep track of your sent messages.
When composing a new message, you can assign labels or star it by using the labels drop-down menu. As you’d expect, recipients of messages organized this way won’t see your labels or stars.
