Q: How can use Mailplane with the latest WebKit?
A:Direct WebKit support was removed with Mailplane 2.0 as it caused some incompatibilities with Gmail and the Mac. However, it still possible to use a different WebKit version:
- Close Mailplane
- Download and install WebKit into your Applications folder
- Open Terminal
- Enter these three lines into Terminal to open Mailplane with WebKit.
- export DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Applications/WebKit.app/Contents/Frameworks/10.5/
- export WEBKIT_UNSET_DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=YES
- open /Applications/Mailplane.app
To check if your change was successful, go to Help->Support and Feedback->Compose Mail. The top line should read:
[Mailplane 2.0.2 (945), OS=10.5.6, Gmail=2, Webkit=528.8+]
