Sparrow 1.5 is here. It brings 3 of the most requested & awaited features!
First. Dropbox.
Drag, drop, send (and sync). Sending a mail with attachement has never been simpler. And without even noticing it, you are syncing your files in the cloud making sure you never lose them.

Second. Block remote images.
Keep control of the images displayed in your mail: once or always.

Third. Search.
With it’s new smart search & Gmail-like tokens, find the mail you’re looking for in a matter of seconds.

Already a Sparrower? As always, this update is completely free for you. Check for update or visit the Mac AppStore and enjoy the new features.
If you’re new to Sparrow, you can get the lite version here or get the full version for $9.99.
Sparrow 1.1.2 is now available on the Mac AppStore
Sparrow 1.0.1 is available
ChangeLog:
- Improved sending speed
- Improved thread/conversation refresh
- Basic Apple script support
- ‘Menur bar only’ mode
- Various bug fixes
Be aware that implementing the ‘Menu bar only’ mode breaks the usual bouncing behavior of the dock icon. We know no AppStore compliant workaround for the dock icon to behave properly when the ‘Menu bar only’ is implemented.
Sparrow Lite (the free trial version) has been submitted to Apple for some time now but hasn’t been validated yet. The application is still ‘waiting for review’. We got in touch with Apple but had no feedback from them so far.
We’re working hard on Sparrow 1.1 (general IMAP support) and we hope you can get your hands on it fast.
Thanks for your support.
Sparrow 1.0 is now available on the Mac AppStore at $9.99.
- Sparrow Lite
Sparrow Lite is still ‘waiting for review’ but should be available soon.
- Licensed Version
We are also finalizing the classic licensed version that should be available to download through our website. If you use Leopard, you will have to wait a few more days. We are working on it right now.
- Sparrow 1.0 bug fix
We will also post an update to fix the identified issues in Sparrow 1.0 such as the ‘Menu Bar only mode’.
- Sparrow 1.1 and IMAP support
Concerning Sparrow 1.1, we’ll be launching a private beta soon with General IMAP support (Mobile Me, AOL, Yahoo and custom IMAP providers). General IMAP is in the works and should be available in March.
