MailTab for Gmail is an app for Macs that lets you access Gmail from your desktop.
Similar to Gmail Notifr, MailTab for Gmail is an inconspicuous tab that sits on the top of your computer's desktop bar and notifies you whenever you receive a new email message. It's a really useful tool that allows you not only to check new mail messages but also to send email, all without having to actually log into a mail client or Gmail itself.
MailTab for Gmail lets you do virtually anything you can do from Gmail's web-based interface. You can create and send emails, save drafts, attach pictures and other files, and sort your mail as you see fit. MailTab for Gmail gives you options on how frequently you'd like to receive notification when receiving new mail, if at all. It also has a built-in refresh button and handy forwards and backwards arrows at the bottom of the app. Virtually anything is up for configuration, and MailTab for Gmail's interface is quite sleek for something so small. When you're not using the app, simply hide it away and wait for notifications of new email whenever they happen to come in.
One thing that would be an excellent future addition to MailTab for Gmail is the ability to connect to the Gmail App hosted domain feature. Currently, this isn't a possibility, making it impossible to check business email from accounts hosted on a domain through the Gmail app feature.
Overall though, MailTab for Gmail is a fantastic choice for anyone who wants a quick way to check and send email straight from their desktop.
