Send Companion

Send Companion version 3 is now available as an App Store approved app for macOS Monterey. Just a simple download from the Mac App Store with ultimate Privacy: https://apps.apple.com/app/send-companion/id1588892909

From the developer's website :( "Currently Send Companion is not under active development, we support our current users but don’t sell any new licenses."

While I like the features and the benefits of this plug-in, the stupid constant pop-up whenever there is an update is annoying. Every single message you send will get a pop-up until it is updated. If you are busy and want to do updates after the work day, but you send out tons of email all day, it will drive you crazy. Some people want to wait to do updates until it is not critical, in case something goes wrong and they can devote time to fixing it. If you update in the middle of a day and something does go wrong, it pretty much shoots the day of work. That applies to system software, apps, plug-ins, etc. Updates are best done when you can afford to lose time if the update does not go smoothly.

Actual version 1.5.0-35: Link is dead…

Oh no! The latest Sierra update with Mail 10.1 has broken the plugin and even MailPluginFix can't fix it. Here's hoping there's going to be a fast update for Send Companion.

Please, please, please, make it work with macOS Sierra GM.

Hi. The actual version (1.3) is unsopported by macOS Sierra (beta) / Mail 10. Thanks for further development. Regards.

Does exactly what I need it to do and it stays completely out of the way until I need it. No learning curve whatsoever. Great!

I purchased Send Companion about a week ago and had trouble installing. I sent an email to support - and the support team were outstanding! The problem was identified and a fix provided. It was not a product problem - but rather a problem with my configuration. I want to give a big thank you to the support team. Now Send Companion is installed, it works better than my expectations.

Hi Developer/s ; Will you also build in a scheduler for sending mail? So besides the current 'Review Alert'.

Really good Mail bundle - and excellent support. Query answered quickly and efficiently.

I sent the following in an email to the developers, but after a week am still waiting for a reply, so I'm posting it here, seeing they frequent this page. Hoi Martijn and Chris, I’ve just paid for your Send Companion because I really like the AutoText feature. I don’t need the Attachment Reminder or the Review Alert, though. Would you consider making it optional to turn those two functions on or off in a future version of the plugin?

"Oops! Forgot to send the attachment." You'll never utter these words again if you use Dutchovate's Send Companion. The plug-in integrates seamlessly with Apple Mail, allowing you to configure the level of review you need. Attachment Reminder will scan your e-mail for keywords which might indicate that you intended to attach a file, such as “attachment,” “photo,” or “PDF”. The keywords can be user-defined, so the flexibility is virtually infinite. Add and remove keywords until you get your list just right, then cease to worry: Send Companion will alert you before you send an e-mail with one of your keywords but without an attachment. The second level of protection is Review Alert, which will remind you to check for common errors and omissions. If you forgot something when Attachment Reminder prompted you the first time, this could save you. It also gives you an opportunity to reconsider what you have written. (This is always wise.) The paid feature, AutoText, allows you to create styled snippets of text which can be of any practical length. This is a great feature if you use Mail.app in your workplace, as you can generate entire e-mails from these snippets. AutoText’s handy editor window also allows you to revise text styling when you create the snippets, so your e-mail will have all the professional polish you need to look its best. For the polish and peace-of-mind, you cannot do better than Send Companion.

Nice and easy Attachment Reminder with custom keywords. Active development, quick and friendly support – highly recommended!

I've been waiting for this for ages! Works exactly as intended. Note that you may need to enable Mail Bundles via Terminal after installing. Only request would be support for Yosemite!

I use several email accounts from within Mac Mail. A big problem with this is that occasionally, when in a hurry, I don't always check the "from" field and sometimes send email from the wrong account. This can be embarrassing, so when I found Send Companion, I was eager to give it a try. There are two great reasons to use this app - It does exactly what it promises without fuss and - the developers are really great guys who listened to my feature request and added it to v. 1.1.0 Taking the time to establish a relationship with your users and responding to their feedback distinguishes a company and it is for this reason I'm writing this review and rating Dutchovate and Send Companion - 5 Stars. Well done and hope you go from strength to strength!

Thank you!!! Was looking for a decent, simple replacement for ForgetMeNot since it got packaged into MailButler and its incredibly overpriced subscription service. The ability to define your own keywords is definitely a plus and the software has worked the few times that I've tried it out. Now if only someone would make a similar replacement for MailUnreadMenu ...

Hi,

After installing the DMG file, I don’t see the Plugin in Mail.app.
What's wrong?

Best regards,
Martijn

UPDATED
I found the solution:
1) The DMG installs a Package-file in your Applications folder; SendCompanion-1.0.1-14.pck
2) This Packahe-file is actually the installer of the plugin
3) Double-click the Package-file to launch the installer
4) Follow the instructions in the Installer

The plugin now works like a charm!
