MorphOS: E-Mail client Iris, beta version 62
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek's "Iris" is supposed to become the standard mail program for MorphOS. It supports IMAP and can read and create HTML mails.
The program requires MorphOS 3.10. You can give feedback to the author using the corresponding discussion on MorphZone.
New Features include:
- Implemented forwarding messages as attachments
- Nice folder icons, icons for failed/draft messages in the Outgoing folder
- Folder settings (accessible from menu)
- It is now possible to create and delete IMAP folders
- Closed state of a folder tree is now serialized
Also fixed:
- INBOX folder wouldn't always be detected correctly (happened on Yahoo)
- Fixed sending of emails from accounts that had no Drafts/Sent folder
- Fixed the 'view in external browser' feature (for attachments)
- Fixed a UTF-7 decoder bug (caused Greek GMail to fail, for example)
- Fixed a crash when parsing a server-side modified folder structure
- Fixed a scroll-to-top issue when progressively adding list entries while scrolling
- Fixed a crash in session shutdown/resource tracking

MorphOS: WebRadio.sbar 1.5
WebRadio.sbar is another screenbar for MorphOS written by Thomas Igracki. The program is based on Grzegorz Kraszewski's CgmRadio 2.0 and can play Internet radio station streams. But it is required that the station uses the ShoutCast protocol of the MPEG audio format (usually MP3, MPEG-1 Layer III) - streams of other formats like Ogg Vorbis, WMA or AAC+ cannot be decoded.

Interview: Mark Ritter (Workbench Explorer)
Under the title link the US-American online merchant Amiga On The Lake has published an interview with Mark Ritter who is the author of the AmigaOS-4 file browser Workbench Explorer and of the InfoData.gadget class which is part of the Enhancer software.
In the interview the developer has announced an text editor for programmers called struct which will be not an entire IDE but "fast and sleek".
Furthermore he complained about "the lack of development from Hyperion". He wrote: "I submitted a bug report for the listbrowser.gadget class over two years ago. It was fixed right away. But it still has not been released to the public. It makes WEx look bad, but I can't do anything about it. Driving me nuts. Release it!"
