Two New Applications – MailBin 2 and Suction
DrNathan has two new useful applications for your consideration, MailBin 2 and Suction.
MailBin was originally mentioned here last summer, and has changed quite a bit since then. No longer a compiled Perl script, MailBin was built from the ground up in C#. It still checks your Gmail account and remotely queues up NZB files for your favorite newsreader, but it includes a handful of new options, including multiple account support and the ability to download Zipped collections of NZB files, as well as .Torrent files. The program weighs in at only 535 KB, a significant decrease in size from the original.
Suction is a useful tool for those of you out there who find the need to organize large groups of files. Based off the concept of the “Unify” function found in Dir Utils, Suction is a 64-bit compatible alternative to the aforementioned application. Given any number of directories, the program “suctions” all files from the root folders’ subdirectories, depositing them in the root folder for easy access and sorting. You can either set Suction to install itself to your right-click context menu, or you can simply drag and drop folders into the application window. After that, Suction does the rest. It even deletes all of the empty subfolders as it does its work, so you are left with a single folder containing all of your files. At 180 KB, it’s worth a shot.
What happened to the applications, they can’t be downloaded anymore
They should be back up now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Suction works well. It’s quick, which is surprising for an app of its type.
