• Baton Mail
Baton Mail Baton Mail has been in existance for about 8 months in a limited Emailer users circle (members of the Emailer-Talk list). The basic idea of Baton Mail is ; it works as an intermediary relay. Your email client sends email to Baton Mail, which in turn authenticates you to your mail server, and then passes the mail stream along. Developer Chris Bartlett says:
"It is fairly solid (although still beta, simply because I am still adding features), and as I said, has been in use now publicly for about 8 months, and in use constantly on my laptop until about a month ago when my poor PB 1400 bit the dust :-(" System requirements:
Baton mail supports SMTP Auth (Plain, Login, CRAM-MD5), POP Auth, port mapping, AOL relaying, and Location Manager. Baton Mail is currently freeware, (and will remain free during beta You can read more about its features, and download a copy at :

ZipIt 2.0 Now Mac OS X Native This zip compression program for the Macintosh is now Mac OS X native. ZipIt version 2.0 runs on Mac OS X as well as OS 8.6 and later with Carbon installed. Sporting a brand new user interface, ZipIt version 2.0 now makes it even simpler and more intuitive to access your archived files. ZipIt uses the familiar Macintosh interface to help you manipulate your zip archives, including a hierarchical list identical to that used by the Finder. ZipIt retains all essential Macintosh information for files while retaining complete compatibility with zip products on other platforms. Thus, ZipIt is ideal for both personal compression use, for sending files to others with Macintoshes, as well as for sending and receiving files from PC and Unix users. Even better, your friends and coworkers don't have to have a copy of ZipIt. Instead, you can create self-extracting archives, so they need merely to double-click, and it will expand. ZipIt is also ideal for your archival needs. With full support for segmented archives, you can create a zip file of any size, so long as you have enough disks to hold the archive. ZipIt features a complete Macintosh interface, based on the interface provided by Bill Goodman's Compact Pro. That means that, if you can use Compact Pro, you can already use ZipIt. If you are new to the Macintosh, ZipIt's interface should still be easy to figure out; but it also comes with an extensive manual that explains how to use all of its features. A zip archive is any file that ends with the extension '.zip'. The zip format is popular on the IBM, and is widely used as an interplatform compression format. In addition, ZipIt can compress Macintosh applications and documents without losing any of their data. ZipIt is best used when transferring compressed documents to and from other computer types. Some examples are: text files, TIFF pictures, Excel databases, and QWK message packets, to name just a very few. Note that files that end in '.Z' or '.gz' are not ZipIt files, even though Netscape may give them a ZipIt icon. ZipIt is fully compatible with all versions of PKZip on the IBM, Info-ZIP on Unix, and zip implementations on other platforms. New in this version:

Featuring submenus, plugins, customizable options, and more, you can now launch any application, document, control panel, or use one of many plugins in any application, including the Finder.
