Sparrow 1.4.1 is live

It took a while but Apple finally let it out. 

Sparrow 1.4.1 is here with much awaited bug fixes. This new version fixes the following issues:

  • Growl 1.3 support
  • iCloud Support
  • Mail ordering
  • Quick reply all 
  • Encoding issue
  • Quick Look in full screen mode
  • Keychain issue
  • Various crash & bugs

Some of you might still experience issues with iCloud despite the update.

Apple is using a custom authentication system for some iCloud accounts and they haven’t shared the details of it with us yet. This explains why it could not work as expected and require you to follow this workaround.

Of course, that’s not all.
