Why Mailroom changed the way I use email on my iPhone
There was Mailplane on the Mac. But nothing on the iPhone. Then came along Mailroom. This is my review of the App that changed the way I email on the iPhone.
I’m addicted to email. Back in 2005, when I first changed sides from a @yahoo.co.in email address to the exclusively-beta gmail.com, I was blown away with what I was presented with. 5 years later, today, Google’s email service is arguably the most widely used and feature-packed free email service on the planet. Over the past five years, I’ve grown increasingly fond of the interface tweaks and feature additions Google has been adding to its service. Moreover, I have pretty much adapted my workflow to make use of all the nifty features that the Web UI offers. Exceptional fast searching, labels, archiving and filters changed the way I (and most people) use email. If all this wasn’t enough, Google came ahead and launched Google Apps, a service that let us use all of the features of Google Email (and other services), but using our own domain, for free. The fact that Google Apps offered a dead simple way to manage your business email, all while having the same awesome features (and more) from Gmail, was enough for me to start using Google Apps for almost all of the domains I’ve bought over these years.
