Brings Gmail to your Mac desktop
"As a freelance writer who also has his own business, I need to manage multiple email accounts. Mailplane gives the power to manage those with ease. Gmail + Mailplane combo is the best thing that happened to me in 2008."

We are investigating the issue. The crashes started with Mac OS X 10.5.7 and do only happen when you use Google Gears to access "Offline Gmail". Workaround: Disable Google Gears's usage statistics to get less crashes:
Please send crash reports to ruben AT mailplaneapp.com (click "Report" and then copy/paste complete text to an email. Thanks for your help.)
Sometimes keys get interpreted (instead of entered) when replying to a message. Workaround: 1) Open System Preferences 2) Click "Keyboard & Mouse" 3) Go to the "Keyboard shortcuts" tab 4) At the bottom of the window there is a "Full keyboard access" setting: Set it to "All controls"
In Google Gears 0.5.4.2, the installer creates
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Gears.pluginbut the InputManager looks for
gears.plugin(lowercase).
Solution: Renaming it to all lowercase should solve the issue. More info...
