#BIG WINMAIL READER MANUAL#

You can utilize one of the manual alternatives. The reality is if you don't want to pay, you don't have to. Speaking of which, there ARE alternatives, but nothing that I've come across that integrates so seamlessly. All I can say, is I recommend the complainers develop a freeware tool if that's how they feel. Otherwise, this product can seem costly, which I know frustrates a lot of people.

#BIG WINMAIL READER UPGRADE#

(Wish Apple would just build it into Mail.app! But it keeps the developers of Letter Opener, Creative in Austria, in business!)Īt one time there was a lifetime upgrade option for this product, but I don't see it as an option, though, if you have a previous license you qualify for a reduced upgrade price (1/2 off). I appreciate the long term development of this product, which results in fast updates when they're required by new version of Mail.app. I came to the product as a switcher from the Windows environment in 2008. Lo and behold I was sorting email and came across a winmail.dat file attachment! Installing the trial, it was immediately resolved! I thought I'd wait and see if I missed it. Until recently, I'd not upgraded to the new version when I updated my OS to Mavericks. I've been a long time user of Letter Opener, going back to the OMiC days. The published price is that of an annual subscription. Once Letter Opener is installed, email attachments just work! There's no fuss with Letter Opener, no need to drag the winmail.dat file onto another application or call upon several programs to help you. Letter Opener converts winmail.dat files on the fly, so you can actually see and use what the sender intended you to have. With Letter Opener in Apple Mail, the worry is gone. In those cases, you may miss important communications. That winmail.dat file may only be the rich text format or it could contain an important graphic, calendar entry or invitation, task, address book contact, Microsoft Outlook Note, or nested messages. When this comes from an employer or client, it's even more frustrating. When using Apple Mail, if you've ever received an e-mail that included an attachment called winmail.dat, you know the frustration of not knowing what was sent to you. Letter Opener extracts attachments from winmail.dat files (was OMiC).
