I’ve finally given up all hope that Steve Jobs will ever answer my emails, so it’s time to close off the “Talking Mail.app” series that ran on Hawk Wings through February and early March.
A number of developers and iCelebrities cheerfully gave up their time to conduct “email interviews”, sharing their views on what’s good about Mail and what’s not so good, what plugins they use to make their Mail experience better and how Mail.app could be improved.
Here is the full list of interviews:
Scott Morrison – MailTags and Mail Act-on developer.
Joe Kissell – Mac writer and journalist.
Daniel Jalkut – Rising Tech blogger, developer of FastScripts.
Fraser Speirs – Connected Flow, developer of FlickrExport, XJournal.
Leander Kahney – Managing Editor of Wired News, Cult of Mac.
drunkenbatman – “Some guy with a website”.
Pierre Igot – Betalogue, writer, translator, Mac tech support person.
John Gruber – Daring Fireball. Blog superstar.
Andreas Amann – Mail Scripts developer.
Giles Turnbull – Writer, Mac journalist.
Rui Carmo – Tao of Mac.
Peter Maurer – Textpander, Witch, Butler, Service Scrubber, etc, etc.
Andrew Escobar – Developer of Mail Stamps.
Brady J Frey – Design Company Creative Director.
Rob Griffiths – macOSXHints, MacWorld.
Matt Haughey – A Whole Lotta Nothing, MetaFilter, PVRBlog.
Ethan Schoonover – kGTD, photographer.
Merlin Mann – Productivity god. (*swoon*).
Brent Simmons – NetNewsWire, MarsEdit.
Michael Tsai – SpamSieve, DropDMG, ATPM.
Thanks, guys. Hang on a minute…. Yes, they are all guys. How did that happen?

What do I have to do to include an image in my signature? I have tried JPEG, TIFF, etc. They will appear in the sig on my end but they will not go to another computer with the mail.
Well, you could interview my wife and she’ll tell you how she loves Mail’s “whoosh” sound when she sends a message.
That’s odd. So does my wife. Hmmm….
It surprises me on reflection that there is so much testosterone in the list.
Where are the high profile female Mac users that I should have known about and asked, but didn’t?
