Three Column Mail in Leopard
TMO Quick Tip - Three Column Mail in Leopard
by , 7:30 AM EST, November 12th, 2007
One of my favorite plug-ins for Mail in Tiger is Aaron Harnly's Letterbox because it adds a great three column view to Apple's email application. Unfortunately, Letterbox hasn't been updated yet to work with Mac OS X 10.5 -- but I did find an alternative.
Dane Harnett's WideMail 0.0.5 plug-in, like Letterbox, adds a three column view to Mail. The first column shows your accounts and mailboxes, the second shows messages, and the third displays the selected message. Message rows in the second column alternate colors which makes it easier to pick out individual emails.
 WideScreen adds a three column view to Leopard's Mail application. |

At version 0.0.5, WideMail is still early in its development, but it does appear to be relatively stable. Even so, don't be surprised if you encounter the occasional bug.
WideMail is free, but the developer won't turn donations away. You can download WideMail at Dane Harnett's Web site.
