Affixa Alternatives
Affixa is described as 'makes your webmail account part of Windows. Affixa makes gathering and preparing the files you want to send easy. Affixa gives you the choice of which web or desktop mail system you use and when' and is an app in the Online Services category. There are three alternatives to Affixa for Windows. The best alternative is EasyMail for Gmail, which is free. Other great apps like Affixa are TVHGoogleMapi (Free, Open Source) and GmailDefaultMaker (Free, Open Source).
- EasyMail is automatically loading the Google Mail website. It allows you to use the Google Mail service in a standalone app. So you don't need to have your web browser constantly open.
- When you move to gmail or google apps you can no longer use the build in 'send to mail recipient as attachment' menu option of MS Office and other windows applications without installing a local mail client.No screenshots yet
- Gmail as the default mailto: client. Yahoo, AOL, and Hotmail are now also supported. The Gmail compose message webpage opens with the To: box filled in automatically instead of a desktop client like Outlook, Windows Live Mail, or Thunderbird.
