MailForge	Jun 11 2009	WIDGE34 Why would anyone pay for this when there are other mail apps out there such as Apples Mail, Postbox, Thunderbird etc? (Version 1.0)		0

MailForge

STEVE R I'm an old fart and I hang out on mailing lists with other old farts. Despite our ages, we try new things like other mail apps, and those of us who have been using Eudora since the early '90s still prefer to use Eudora. It suits our needs. Right now though, the only PPC app on my Intel Mac is Eudora 6.2.4. I've tried the 'new' Thunderbird-like Eudora and hate it. If MailForge comes anywhere near the classic Eudora handling of email, my credit card will be out to pay for it.

OmniWeb	Mar 15 2008	WIDGE34 But why would you want to pay for this browser when there are free browsers out there that are better? (Version 5.7 beta 1)		0

Gmail Browser	Jan 14 2008	WIDGE34 I would use this if it block the right hand side ads when a message is opened. There seems to be a box to tick in preferences to block ads, but it does not work. (Version 0.95)		0

MACUPDATE ADMIN You should contact the developer.

Opera	Jul 20 2007	WIDGE34 I can read my Gmail account from Opera fine. You may have to experiment with site preferences and have the prefs identify the site as Opera. Gmail does not seem to work if you identify as firefox or IE. (Version 9.22)		0

Camino	Jun 5 2007	WIDGE34 Fantastic Browser. Faster than any other browser i've used, and believe me i've tried them all. I've been using Camino ever since it was called Chimera. Camino Devs, carry on the superb work. (Version 1.5)		0

iPhoto2Gmail	Mar 9 2007	WIDGE34 Excellent. I've longed for an app like this. Its always been a bit of a pain to export the photo to the desktop then go to your email and attach it. This app is so much quicker. Brilliant (Version 0.4)		0

Gmail Browser	Mar 8 2007	WIDGE34 When i run Gmail through Safari i can block the side ads when an email is loaded. Is there anyway to block these ads with gmail Browser?? (Version 0.92)		0

Gmail Browser	Mar 1 2007	WIDGE34 Good idea. But Gmail Browser seems to have Safari underpinnings. There is no option down the left hand side to chat. This is missing when gmail is used with safari. calendar seems fine though. picasa thumbnails do not load either. Although i'm not sure if this is supported. (Version 0.6)		0

OmniWeb	Feb 1 2007	WIDGE34 Needs a Tab Bar. The side bar takes up too much screen room, especially if you have a 15" screen. When i launch Omniweb it doesn't automatically fill the my screen, i have to do it manually. This browser is not as good as Safari, Camino, Firefox or Shiira so why would you want to pay for it???

HUSSAIN you can resize the window as you like, say as big as the screen, then go to Window menu and choose Save Window Size .. now every time you open an omniweb window it will open to that size
