POP Peeper for Mac

Post by petrjohns »

Have been using PP for quite a while on my PC (and love it) but moved to a Mac late last year. Despite hours of searching, there is no program with PP's features available which will run on a Mac. The nearest I have found is Mailbox Manager but this is very tedious to use as you must check each account separately. Please consider porting PP to the Mac and selling it thro the App Store - I would gladly pay $20 for it.

One option is to use a Windows emulator. Wine is probably the most popular (and\because it's free). There's also Parallels and Crossover. I've ran POP Peeper using Wine on Ubuntu and it works well.

Hi Jeff,

I fully agree with petrjohns, you should consider porting PP to Mac OS.
I recently moved from Windows to Mac and frankly a Windows emulator is not an option for me.
As petrjohns wrote, such an application doesn't exist for this OS, and Mac users are used to pay for apps are worth it and PP is definitely one of them.
You would make a fortune!!!! :wink:

FYI, I've been running POP Peeper in Wine for years now - it's not perfect, but it works. I would really love a native port, as there's still no solution on the mac that comes close to PP.. but at least it's something.
