	Bloomba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bloomba is an email client publicly announced February 2003 at IDG's DEMO show.
		The company, Stata Labs, Inc. (also the producers of the SAProxy anti spam filter) was purchased by Yahoo in October 2004, at which time sales of Bloomba were suspended.
		In May 2005, Bloomba was licensed to Corel Corporation and re-released as WordPerfect Mail, a component of the WordPerfect Office family.

	'Googling' your e-mail, and now your calendar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Bloomba was built on the premise that much of the time you're "in e-mail" you're trying to ferret out an old message.
		Oh, and Bloomba supports RSS feeds, which is a way of getting Internet content alerts delivered directly to your desktop, bypassing visits to Web sites that offer them.
		A Bloomba Professional edition ($90), which Stata promises for July, will allow users to share multiple calendars and contacts with colleagues as well as synchronize their entire Bloomba data store with handhelds running the Palm operating system.

		Now Bloomba Pro lets you share your calendar with others in your office, or remotely over the web, and sync your calendar and contacts to your Palm OS device.

	tins ::: Rick Klau's weblog: No longer a Bloomba user (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Though I grant that Bloomba is useful, I couldn’t justify throwing $60 at a problem that I’m not feeling enough pain on.
		Bloomba requires SAProxy to run, which is a client-side implementation of SpamAssassin.
		Bloomba does a nice job of grouping e-mails by thread, but when you delete the top-level item in a thread, I think it should delete the thread (or at least ask if that’s what you want).

	Grokking Bloomba (by Jeremy Zawodny)
		Stata's client is called Bloomba and I got a brief demo of it from Patrick (also from Stata Labs) before we headed over to URL's for lunch.
		Bloomba is designed to manage a large volume of both e-mail and RSS feeds.
		Bloomba also has something that I haven't seen in many other places: automatic aging.

	PCWorld.com - E-Mail Evolves
		To test Bloomba's chops, we searched for a specific name (in the recipient list, body text, or attachment) among all in-box documents from the past three months, collapsed the resulting list into a directory, and sorted by thread--all within the control panel.
		Apart from these issues, Bloomba is good stuff, and clearly geared toward power users who routinely maintain a deep in-box and are willing to learn a few tricks to mine it efficiently.
		Bloomba gets high marks as well for empowering users to employ their best filtering asset--their own two eyes--more effectively.

	Technically Speaking » My review of Bloomba
		Bloomba is setup for their idea of email management.
		The difference is that Bloomba makes you feel that you should be thinking a different way, like how do I find my message that is from “Bob”, received “yesterday”, through “this” mailserver, containing these words.
		I can’t wholly blame Bloomba for it neither, although Bloomba should warn you that using folders goes against their development ideology.

	Desktop Pipeline \| How-To \| Review: Bloomba Professional Edition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Bloomba Professional Edition uses Stata Labs SAProxy spam filtering, which is good but doesn't seem to me to be as good as the protection offered by Outlook 2003, or by Cloudmark which I use on a system running Outlook XP.
		The rules filtering that Bloomba Professional Edition provides you with is at least as good as Outlook's, and even allows you to dispose of outbound mail by moving it to a designated folder..
		But Bloomba Professional Edition doesn't move the current e-mail pointer when new messages arrive which means you have to manually tap the up-arrow key or pull the scroll bar pointer to see what is in any new e-mail.

		Too bad that if Bloomba searched Rick Klau's website for a specific Positive Topic on John Kerry, all it would find is the "Donate Box," and a "I support him" post without anything positive to say about Kerry.

		I first heard about bloomba through Olivier, a spaces user who kindly forwarded me to the following Infoworld article.
		With the features it has, it's difficult to see bloomba as more than an 'Outlook Express killer' (to continue with the homicidal metaphor) or an 'Eudora killer'.
		The second element of the hype is the new functionality it purports to provide 'Google-like' functionality on your email.

	Bloomba 1.0 review by PC Magazine
		Bloomba 1.0 isn't just your run-of-the-mill e-mail client; it's specifically designed for people who are overwhelmed by the amount of e-mail they receive.
		Bloomba achieves this by indexing your incoming mail (header info, message body, attachments, folder, and read and filed status) as it arrives.
		Bloomba includes most of the standard features you'd expect, plus it includes a spam blocker that's supposed to be good (I don't need it).
