In terms of interface, this is the easiest mail designer I have seen. Really like the editor BUT just can not get the "send through apple mail" feature to work...my layouts get all messed up after it's transferred. I'm going to try with a different computer to see if it's just me.

I really wanted to love this app. Creating email is on onerous task. Unfortunately Mail Designer isn't quite up to the task yet. It could be a great tool if they fix it. Its not a *bad* app, just not very good yet. For a professional there are no precise controls. Everything is click and drag and that, quite frankly, becomes a drag at some point. I just want to enter a number into a box and be done. This app needs to be more like InDesign or Quark in that it gives the users better control over aspects of the design.

One of my biggest beefs is that it doesn’t use standard html formatting, in that when you use images in the app, the code renames it in to a very long sequence of numbers and letters rather than keeping the original name. This makes editing in an html editing app or even a text editor impossible. Why would you want to use a html editor you ask? There are just some things that you have to do in an editor that this app will not do. Or you just want to tweak the code.

i will say that customer service is excellent.

In the end this is the only html email app that I have found that is works at all, so if they improve the app I may go back to using it. Right now I'd rather use online tools like Campaign Monitor and edit the code in Dreamweaver for now. It easier and far more elegant solution.

It is slow and cumbersome, still the best app to create custom Mail templates. Which they could make it more snappy.

I bought the latest MacHeist bundle for this. imo the best mail template maker. Not that difficult to master and great pro results. Highly recommended.

I needed to make a quick custom mail template. Searching for a tool to do this it was remarkable there are not many such tools. The only that could do what I needed was Mail Designer. Although it is a real pita to use it did the job. If the developer could improve the GUI, both regarding speed, stability and usability, it could well be worth the asking price. Now it is a plain awful experience and only to be used when no other option is available.

This app requires full registration with email and address for activation. Nope, not with me. Once again a company that doesn't understand that they shouldn't treat their paying customers like this.

I just gave Mail Designer a try yesterday… – but deleted it after only one hour playing around with it. Its templates are too cheap looking compared to its high price in my opinion. And when I wanted to add some (IMHO mediocre) business templates Equinux even wanted to charge more money. But its not only about templates and pricing: I would have been happy to pay that high price (maybe even more) for a really sophisticated and reliable mail designing solution (since I haven't found any other promising app solution for the Mac on the market so far) but Mail Designer doesn't even provide what I see as a "must have" design options e.g. rounded corners in boxes. Provided graphics look cheap, too. Apple showed us with iWork how nice templates and graphics could look if one would invest in professional designers with attention to detail. After having deleted Mail Designer and its stationary packages yesterday today I was informed, that Mail Designer even made entries in my Mac's PubSub framework and wanted to contact Equinux's servers in the background – TO BE CLEAR: This happened while the Mail Designer software was already DELETED (!). I don't like this kind of (for the users) unnecessary modifications of their systems and hidden "calling home". I just searched for a solution to design mails with a professional crisp look – but unfortunately finally haven't found it so far.

Utter crap. As long as you don't alter the templates, e-mails arrive OK at least on the Mac OS and iOS platforms. But as soon as you change anything, the get garbled to chaos. And EVERY Mail Designer mail that arrives on a Windows machine (Outlook) looks the same. HORRIBLE. Besides, the app is absolutely un-intuitive and un-Mac-like.

I hoped to get mail designer for the right price and after a long wait it finally happened. I got mail designer for around 30 Euros on thanks to the Black Friday Sale from EQUINUX. For 30 bucks it's a good value even for occasional use.

Have to agree. $70 for an app like this is steep. Might be a great app but lets face it, not going to use it more than 2 or 3 times a year. Which makes more sense, buy this app to make a custom form or go hunt one up in a collection of mail stationary. At $20 yep. At $35, maybe. At $70, I just can't justify.

Does anyone know whether one can get to the source-code of the email templates once the design is set up? We'd like to use this app in conjunction with a different mass-mailing app for sending out our company html-newsletters, a task for which Apple Mail is not exactly well suited.

Nice, but $70???? Get real, guys. Maybe I'd buy this for $29.95 to design my own template, but at this price point the app only makes sense for commercial designers. And knowing Equinux from their SongGenie and CoverScout apps I know that development and bug fixing will be veeeeerrrry slow and most likely resolved with another pricey upgrade.
