Dockstar 2.0 brings screensaver, widget and more badge options to Mail.app

Mail.app junkies who demand more from that little red Dock badge - rejoice! Dockstar, the go-to app for adding up to 5 new notification badges to Mail.app's icon that we've mentioned before, has received some great new features for a version 2.0 upgrade. New in this version are features like counting messages in nested folders, counting flagged, junk or total messages, sound notifications for each badge and even a screensaver and Dashboard widget.

Check out the changelog for more details, or snag a new copy. A license costs a mere $8.

Hi Mo:

We'll have that smart folder issue fixed very soon. Sorry for the trouble.

BTW: DockStar 2 works great on Leopard (the current build anyhow ;) )

Regards,

I'll buy that for a dollarâ€¦ or eight, in this case.

It's worth noting that Dockstar is curently implemented as an Input Manager bundle (rather than the more usual Mail bundle), and so will stop working when Leopard arrives unless Ecamm implement it differently by then (at least they've got a bit longer to do it, nowâ€¦)!

The only thing I've found so far that doesn't work is total and flagged counts on smart folders (unread count is fine, mind).
