Guide Review - SpeedMail 1.2 - Email Program

You need to send a short email, and you need to send it fast. A full-blown email client seems overkill for such a simple task, especially when you have a speedy small tool like SpeedMail at hand.

SpeedMail is small and simple, but a nifty "address book" isn't missing, and you can even switch between two From: addresses for outgoing emails. Of course SpeedMail also supports attachments.

SpeedMail's size and simplicity come at the price of limited functionality, however. The text editor provides no comfort, since SpeedMail doesn't support incoming mail you can't produce replies with it, and so on. SpeedMail's domain are short quick messages, here it excels.
