    Thank you!!!

    This is excactly what Sparrow lacked (they stated their reasons, but this is really great!).

    I just bought the app, it's got Tapbots written all over it. Very nice though.

    We just need Sparrow for free now ;P
    Kidding. But I'd like to give it a try and see if it is worth it. I finally got used to Mail.app...

    Does that mean Sparrow always has to be in my multitasking bar, or will it turn into a hidden process like Mail.app? I like the prospect of mailto link redirection, then Sparrow really could be a replacement for the default Mail app.

    I tested it and it's just like the normal Mail.app -> Hidden process. BUT: The Mail.app is still there. Got rid of it by renaming the original Mail.app with iFile.

    But, how much does that screw up with the Mail.app? I'd still like to have the Mail functionality in IntelliScreenX but use Sparrow as the actual client.

    You can't launch it anymore, so I think IntelliScreenX won't work with Sparrow only. But you can also disable the Mail.app-Multitasking through the settings by changing the auto-refresh to manual.

    It's fixed already! :)
