Thanks for that; interesting.
Handling mail messages as information
8/18/2015
Quite right, Jorge, it was Everdesk. Thank you!
Everdesk does have a highly unusual and effective interface, even if you're not using it as an e-mail client.
I take your point, Ken. It's surprising h...
Handling mail messages as information
8/17/2015
Ah, right. I take your point. MailStore only offers a single type of interactivity, namely searching (although you can save named searches, which arguably equates to tagging).
Hm. The only other mail...

Distant memories prompt me to suggest you also take a look at Mailbird (https://www.getmailbird.com). It doesn't run on Mac, unfortunately, otherwise I'd take a look myself.

You might also want to take a look at Oasys Mail Manager; Oasys is a spin-off from one of the giant engineering companies, and their software is really quite powerful; we used to use Mail Manager when...

Hm, the only thing I can think of off the cuff is MailStore, the Home version of which is free (for individuals). And which has an awesome search function.

It's also worth mentioning that Apple has just added document recovery services to iCloud (covering documents, contacts and calendars), although I can't pretend to have experimented with this yet.
So...
Publishing a database as website
8/17/2015
Some very interesting examples here, I must say.
There are some interesting options on the Mac, too, such as Growly Notes.
But if I was publishing a database as a website, I'd want a search engine i...
I use Ulysses quite a lot (as you know), and have found that from dismal beginnings, the iCloud sync between Mac and iPad is now fast and reliable.
iCloud sync is still odd, in the sense that you can...
ASANA - any new reactions
8/13/2015
That does look interesting, Ken - thanks.
Although it appears to resemble Podio, which definitely takes the prize for being the most baffling piece of over-engineered project management software I've...
Sensational return of Cloud Outliner
8/13/2015
I agree that notes are rather restricted, but then, it's not a super-sophisticated outliner like OmniOutliner (so you can't apply rich text to individual words, for example). On the other hand, it doe...
Quip becomes... an outliner?
8/13/2015
In its ongoing endeavours to become all things to all small furry things, Quip (well, its desktop versions for Mac and Windows) has made another step towards becoming an outliner by introducing an out...
ASANA - any new reactions
8/7/2015
My son (budding movie director) uses Asana for his project management work, and seems to like it. On the other hand, he's not a natural CRIMPer and tends to stick with something that works once he's d...
Sensational return of Cloud Outliner
8/5/2015
Yup, Cloud Outliner, for long an increasingly shy, embarrassed, underperforming teenager shuffling awkwardly about in the background, has suddenly evolved into a Mega-App, now entitled Cloud Outliner ...
Yup, it's true, the beloved Alfons has just preempted Apple and brought out a two-pane feature for Notebooks!
It's very neat – the centre column is just a couple of pixels wide, so optimises th...
... although I'd hesitate to characterise Scrivener as a quick, low-impact note-taking app ;-)
I seem to remember that AM-Notebook stores notes etc. as separate files, although my failing memory (of all things Windows-related) isn't absolutely reliable on this score. The app certainly meets all...
There's a brief but nice review of OutlineEdit on MacLife, incidentally, at http://www.maclife.com/article/reviews/outlineedit-review
I'd opt for Notebooks (by Alfons Schmid) for Windows.
It manages its own files very efficiently, but in your file system, stores them as folders and distinct/separate text and HTML files, with attach...
Hyper Plan
7/28/2015
It will not unduly surprise anybody that I, moi, the Arch-CRIMPer (pace George), am already a HyperPlan user.
I quite like it. I especially like the new version, but I also like the fact it's steadil...
I have, with some trepidation, updated both my iPads (old iPad 2 and iPad Mini 2, so very different machines) to iOS 9 beta 2.
And to my surprise, it runs pretty well. Safari has a tendency to crash ...
New task manager
7/8/2015
Funnily enough, I've recently returned to TickTick, having been using Ulysses as my task manager for several months.
TickTick isn't new, but they have been steadily developing it, and the latest vers...
The Perils of CRIMPing
7/8/2015
The site search engine is quite good, in fact. You'll see it in the left-hand navigation bar (admittedly slightly obscured by ads etc.)
