Chattermail

Is anyone using Chattermail? They offer a 30 day trial, but I haven't had a chance to check it out. How does it compare to Snappermail?

Hi Chris

I'm using the 30 day test version and it works fine for me - very reliable. I wish they added iCal calendar appointments arriving instantly so I can intantly add them (or they would add themselves to the Treo calendar), but I should pay first and make requests later.

I had to setup their 6 months free IMAP account, since .Mac (which is also IMPAP) does not support the IDLE coomand, but their IMAP works fine. You can always forward the important email to it or inform the senders to send to that account and it will arrive instantly on your Treo.

I'll purchase it this weekend. I like it better than Versamail - don't know Snappermail.

PS: You did not reply to my question on the amount of detail in the various tomtom maps, which include the same city. If a city (Toronto) is included in more than one map, does it matter which map is it? Which map should I load?

Not 100% sure. In my case, I opted for the New England Maps and was surprised they had all the POI's and detailed street maps. My guess is that the smaller city maps are identical to the maps included in the larger set.

pitbull107, there are a couple different ways to uninstall Chatter, if you want to get it off your Treo.

You can use the default launcher, to uninstall. From the launcher screen, highlight Chatter, then hit the menu button, then go app / delete.

A more recommended way to uninstall apps is with some kind of uninstaller app, like Uninstall Manager. On a side note, ZLauncher has an excellent file manager which can be used for the same thing. Bottom line, the standard launcher's app deletion leaves a lot to be desired. It doesn't get all the associated files and databases when you use it to delete apps.

I don't see anyplace to "uninstall app". I have the 700p not the w

Yes. Just like everyone else's posts about cahttermail, it got so that I couldn't stand the phone vibrating, resetting and just plain acting up. So, bye-bye chattermail!

Out of curiosity, what other apps are you running?

Nothing other than what came with the phone. I just got it late December.
I read a post saying chattermail was great (I should have kept reading) and installed it. Lesson learned: don't believe everything you read. RESEARCH!
