pclark, can you explain why you like mailplane so much?

  starring emails is a critical part of (my) email work flow. It's far too many clicks on the mail iphone app to "flag" an email, so I use the gmail web ui on my iPhone as my email client. So then I want my starred emails to appear on my desktop too, right, so I use gmail in a web browser. But then when I quit my browser (or accidentally close the tab) I'm disconnected from email. So I could wrap gmail in a fluid app. But then it's a very "dumb" mail client. Mailplane adds a number of critical features to gmail on a desktop, specifically: drag and drop of attachments. copy and paste images into emails and they're attached. growl notifications of new emails or google chats.

    Ah okay, so starring (which is not a part of my workflow) is the unique selling point. Thanks, got it!
