Mailplane 2.1 released
Wednesday, November 18, 2009
Mailplane 2.1 has just been released and is free for all registered users. Use the Mailplane > Check for Update menu item to load it or use the direct download link.
Here's what the latest version has to offer.
Multiple email signatures
Define as many signatures as you want. Each signature can be formatted and linked to an image. If you have multiple “from” addresses, Mailplane will insert the matching signature. Learn how to setup your first signature.
Insert images into message text
Attachments are great, but wouldn’t it be nice to insert images into the message text? With the “Inserting Images” Gmail lab feature you now can. And Mailplane adds image 'drag and drop' and screenshots to the lab feature. Learn how to setup and use the feature.
Offline Gmail
Mailplane now supports the Gmail Offline lab feature. Take your Gmail offline to read, answer and compose emails when you are disconnected from the internet. Learn more.
Check out the complete list for all changes and improvements.
I hope you like your new Mailplane!

New Mailplane how-to articles
Thursday, November 12, 2009
Mailplane offers more than one might realize. The new "how-to" documentation can help you get more out of Mailplane. Each how-to article comes with screenshots and step by step instructions.
You find the articles in support section of the mailplaneapp.com website or by opening the online help: (Use the Help > Mailplane Help menu item to access it).
As a start over a dozen articles have been published. Over the next few days, more will follow. I plan to cover all new 2.1 features and focus on some getting started topics. If you miss a particular article, please suggest it.

Enhanced License: Use Mailplane on all your Macs
Until recently, a Mailplane single user license was limited to two Macs. Because many users needed Mailplane on more Macs, I've decided to lift this limitation:
- Single-user license: Install on all Macs you personally use. Use it at home, school, work: just anywhere. Limitation: Make sure you're the only user. Please do not share your license with anyone else.
- Family license: Allow up to five (5) family members living in the same household to use Mailplane on their Macs. As with the single user license, there is no machine limitation for any of the five users.
- Site license: For a number of users working at the same organization. Again, each user may use it anywhere.
This improved license applies to all registered users! You don't need to re-install or re-download anything.
Tip: If you need to upgrade your license (say from "single user" to "family"), check out the new upgrade page.

Offline Gmail: Choose which messages get downloaded
Thursday, November 05, 2009
If you're using Offline Gmail with Mailplane, you may like the new Gmail Offline settings:
You can now choose which messages get downloaded. On the Offline tab under Settings, you'll see your current settings and be able to set how much mail you want to download from each of your labels.
- Change date range setting for all listed labels.
- Click "Change label setting" to set the date range for each label separately.
Tip: If you don't see the new settings, create a new Gmail session by Command-clicking the "Sign out" link in the top right of the main window.
Important: Offline Gmail only works with Mailplane 2.1-beta (or later). If you are using Snow Leopard, check out the Snow Leopard Google Gears page.
