Altomac releases Filemailer 2.0 for Mac OS X

Altomac has released Filemailer 2.0, an update to their freeware file sending solution for Mac OS X. It’s an utility that helps expedite the process of sharing files between computers.

Filemailer sports new improvements and fixes for all known bugs. Version 2.0 now offers support for TLS authentication, and includes a new feature to organize contacts in groups to send to multiple recipients.

Every day, millions of people around the world send and receive email (especially between co-workers) whose sole purpose is to transfer files from one computer to another. However this process involves a considerable amount of time because of the number of conventions used when writing an email. But these steps shouldn’t necessary. The aim of the email was just to move a file from one computer to another.

Filemailer avoids this by leveraging an easy-to-use template, and features a single, unified interface, according to the folks at Altomac. All that is necessary is entering a pre-formatted message only once, and the application takes care of the rest. Just drag a file over the recipient and Filemailer automatically deals with the compression of the file, enters the name of compressed file in the subject line, inserts the pre-composed message in the body and sends a file with one click.

Filemailer requires Mac OS X 10.4 or higher. It’s Universal Binary so runs natively on both PowerPC and Intel Macs.

Filemailer 2.0 is freeware. However, there’s also an US$14.95 Pro Edition.
