Thomas Borowski recently did an interview with me and this is now available in the most recent episode of his “Think, Make, Sell” podcast. This is actually the first interview I’ve given about MailMate and it’s also my first podcast appearance. Time will tell if it’s also my last podcast appearance – it turns out I’m the kind of person who cannot listen to myself and therefore I’m not sure exactly what I said in the podcast. If you have any questions related to the interview then you can leave them in the comments of this blog post.

On the subject of questions, I’m frequently answering the following two questions related to MailMate 2.0:

  • Is a license key bought in the store today also valid for version 2.x?

    Yes.

  • When is MailMate 2.0 released?

    I don’t know, but it probably matters more to me than to you. I need it for marketing purposes. You need it for the features, but the development of MailMate is an open process and you can use new features in the betas/releases of MailMate 1.x by enabling 2.0 features in the General preferences pane. If feeling adventurous, you can even fetch cutting edge test releases by holding down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane. Teaser: The test release from today includes an experimental solution for users having to use HTML signatures due to company policy (which is a problem since MailMate is plain text/Markdown only).
