Letterbox: Widescreen Plugin for Mail.app

widescreen-mail.pngMacBook and MBP users will love this tasty little upgrade for Apple’s email client. It gives you a three-pane mail view that’s perfect for widescreen notebookers. It has a small re-size bug with the middle pane and the attachement column (which gets really wide) but it’s still absolutely priceless. Expect Apple to add this to the next version of Mail – if they’ve got any clue whatsoever.

Letterbox is a plugin for Apple’s Mail.app that takes advantage of your widescreen monitor. It rearranges the interface into three vertical columns – so the message pane is to the right of the message list, rather than below. You’ll probably need at least 1280 and perhaps 1440 horizontal pixels for this layout to work well for you.Letterbox-screenshotLetterbox was born of this plea and subsequent discussion at Ars Technica.
