Introducing EverDesk, the first program to provide integrated management of emails, files, and contacts within a single user-friendly interface.

Everdesk Optima organizes both your mail and file within one and the same folder tree. Instead of using conventional mail folders, Optima integrates mail functionality around your existing Windows subject folders, enabling you to easily organize related mail and files together in the same folders based on their common activity.

So, if you want to consolidate all information for each activity in one place, Optima is the program for you.

EverDesk Optima is a software application that allows you manage emails and contacts.

Manage emails, documents, web links, music, movies and other files together in the same folders when they are relevant to the same activity.

View, manage, and send email attachments with far greater ease and flexibility than any other program.

Instantly preview virtually any document on your computer, including emails, pictures, MS Office Documents, PDF files, music files, video files, and more.

Communicate more efficiently with context sensitive address book and faster access to contact information than ever before.

Here are some key features of "EverDesk Optima":

· One Interface for All Activities
Each version of EverDesk combines the best features of your email client, file manager, Windows Desktop, and Calendar into one tightly integrated window, making it the most unique and comprehensive information management software on the market.

· Integrated Email and File management
Each version of EverDesk integrates email functionality within your larger Windows environment. It enables you to see, organize, and work with all of your email, all of your attachments, all of your Windows files from within a single window. There's no more switching back and forth between your email program and Windows.
Traditional email programs can't do this because they manage your email and attachments in a separate, self-contained database - cut off from the larger Windows file structure where all other applications store their files. EverDesk breaks down this artificial barrier to deliver a quantum leap in performance and flexibility.
Try it and you'll see that integration makes all the difference: no more navigating between disparate windows and folder trees to find items, no more juggling dialogue boxes and menus for simple tasks, no more clutter, no more mental gymnastics. Now, for the first time, all of your most important information shows up in one place - in one window, in a single well-organized view - ready, all of it, for immediate and direct action.

· Emails and attachments stored as individual files
Both versions of EverDesk store each email message and each attachment you send or receive as its own individual file. This approach has numerous advantages over the conventional method, including:
Emails and attachments can be stored and managed in the same folders as the rest of your files.
Easier and more powerful attachment functionality in virtually any scenario.
As individual files, they are not prone to corruption that may threaten .pst files that comprise the email database in other email programs.
EverDesk maintains the integrity of each communication (email message + its attachments) by displaying each communication as a whole while at the same time allowing the individual parts to be manipulated independently.

· Unified Folder Tree for Mail and Files
Unlike EverDesk Mail, EverDesk Optima manages your mail and files within one and the same folder tree, as email functionality is integrated around your existing Windows subject folders.
With Optima, each subject folder can become the center of any subject, project, or activity by containing all relevant information - including various application files, received mail, sent mail, and attachments - together in one place.
So instead of having information for each individual activity scattered between a windows subject folder, your Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts, etc, you can instead consolidate all the relevant information in one place.
This innovative approach makes it easier for you to remain organized and focused on your activities and spend less time navigating back and forth between multiple programs, folder trees, and menus. With Optima, all of your stuff, is all in one place!

· Advanced Mail and File Viewing Filters
Optima's Mail and File filters allow you to view your received mail, sent mail, attachments, files, and more in their own individual categories, even after they have been stored together in the same folder.
You can also filter your views by file type and/or use a combination of filters to find files or create useful views that you cannot find in other programs.

· Activity-Centered Mail functionality w/ Smart Reply
In Optima, email functionality is centered around your personal activities, instead of getting sorted to generic repositories (Inbox, Outbox, etc.) which emphasize organization by data type rather than activity.
For example, with Optima received mail is easily sorted directly to the relevant activity folder, while sent mail is automatically saved to activity you are working on when it is created. With Optima's Smart Reply activated, when you send an email message and its recipient then replies back to you, their reply will automatically be sorted to the same folder that your originating email is located. This feature allows you to keep all emails exchanged on a particular subject thread stored in the same folder.
With these and other features, consolidating related received and sent mail, as well as files, according to their common activity becomes effortless.

· Dramatically Enhanced Attachment Functionality
Both EverDesk Mail and Optima make working with attachments easier and more efficient than ever before. EverDesk saves attachments as independent files from the get-go so that you can immediately access, preview and manipulate them with the same ease as the rest of your files. Among the many benefits you get with working with attachments in EverDesk that you won't find anywhere else:
· View all of your Attachments in a folder together, independently of their mail messages
· Preview your Attachments of virtually any file type (pictures, Office documents, music, movies, PDF, etc)
· Save/Copy/Move Attachments directly to any folder of your choice with a drag of your mouse (no cumbersome menus, windows or "Save As" functions!)
· Attachments retain sender information even after they are separated from their mail message

· Multimedia Preview Pane
Thanks to EverDesks multimedia preview pane, you can see (or hear) the contents of any text, image, movie, music, .PDF, or other file, without having to leave the main EverDesk window. That means no more tedious switching between multiple apps and windows just to check what's inside an important file you've just received - or one you want to send. Less distraction and fewer clicks makes for a saner, smoother work process, better concentration on important tasks, and much improved productivity.

Even better, the preview pane works for email attachments too, which means that for the first time you don't actually have to open attachments in their own application before viewing them. Receive a movie or audio file from a friend? How about a Power point presentation or PDF file from a business colleague? Play them or preview them instantly, without having to open up additional windows.

· Quickboard
How about one-click access to all of your favorite contacts, programs, web links, files and folders - again, without leaving EverDesk? Just mouse up to the Quickboard pane, stretched conveniently across the top of EverDesk's all-in-one interface. There, you can place familiar, easily - recognizable contacts, files, folder, and program icons chosen and organized in any arrangement you choose.

Its kinda like your Windows Desktop, only the Quickboard does much more and doesn't require you exiting or minimizing another window to get to. Not only can you place your shortcuts to various items on the Quickboard in the same way you can on your Window Desktop, but you can easily customize their icons with EverDesk's Quickboard customization tool. This really comes in handy for contacts and web links, as you can customize contacts with real pictures and web links with relevant web icons in just a few simple steps.

Contacts in particular take on special functionality when placed on the Quickboard. Mousing over a contact shortcut provides and an instant mouseover preview of all relevant contact information. Clicking on a contact shortcut on the Quickboard instantly opens a new message that is automatically addressed to that contact. And dropping a file on a contact automatically adds that file as an attachment to a new message to that contact.
It all amounts to less clicking, more efficiency.

· Calendar
Both Mail and Optima provide a full Calendar for your scheduling needs.

· Include Subfolder Content View
Selecting this button, which resides above the folder tree will cause the file list to display not only the contents of the selected folder, but also the combined content of all of its subfolders as well. This is a fantastic feature for getting a macro view of information content spanning a collection of folders or finding a file when you've forgotten which folder it has been saved.

· Advanced Contact Lists
In EverDesk, your contact list is never more than a mouse-click away and for the most part, it's a lot closer than that. While viewing mail or files, a single click opens your complete address book for browsing or editing. What's more, by simply holding your cursor over any contact name - within a message or a file or a Quickboard shortcut - its main underlying contact data will pop into view.

Naturally, contacts can be organized into any number of Groups, as you choose, but that's only the beginning. With EverDesk, you can edit a Group's list of names for use with a single message. No permanent change gets made to the Group itself.

And now, to forward a message or file (as attachment) to someone on this list, you need only drop that message or file onto their name. Or, you can easily search for all mails and documents related to this contact. Or, you can add the contact to any Group or the overall contact list.
Contact lists have never been closer at hand or easier to work with.

· Context Sensitive Contacts & Address Book
EverDesk Optima provides context sensitive Contact and Address book functionality. No need to look for the contact by browsing your whole address book anymore - only the people with whom you communicated on the particular subject are shown in the Folder Contacts menus.

The New Message Window provides a quick list of activity specific Folder Contacts that can be selected for addressing purposes. And the Folder Contacts button provides a list of contacts you have communicated with on any given activity from which you can quickly send emails or attachments to particular contacts, search for documents relating to any of those contacts, or edit contact information.

· Superior search
There's nothing like EverDesk Optima's ability to locate the exact files and messages you're looking for, even if you don't quite remember where they are. For one thing, its integrated email and file management makes it a cinch to organize all of these items intuitively, by subject or activity - so they are not scattered in different places to begin with.

With EverDesk Optima you can search all of these items at once and in the same place. No more switching between different search panes, no more losing track of where things are. They're all right here, their location constantly kept track of by EverDesk Optima's omniscient eye.

So rather than having to search emails in one place, files in another, and your attachments stuck in a virtual limbo, they are all accessible in the same place and through a single search.
Optima's unique "include subfolders" button takes searches to yet another level by providing instantaneous access not only to the content of the selected folder, but the content of its subfolders in a single list view. You'll never again have to look through one folder at a time when you've lost track of where something was stored.

· Mouseover Preview of Mail and Contact Information
Preview all the details about any contact from you address book, by simply placing mouse cursor over the contact name anywhere in the program - whether it is filelist or QuickBoard - no need to go to Address Book to see person's phones, address or birthday, for example.

· Transparent PGP Encryption
EverDesk's provides a user friendly PGP encryption interface that makes sending message with encryption quick and easy.

· Categories
Assign category markers to any document for fast location of the documents in the category, regardless their location in the folder tree.
Marking files with a particular Category marker not only adds a color specific marker next to their names, but it also means that all files with that corresponding marker will be viewable together within their corresponding virtual Categories folder, even if the files are located in different folders.

· Sticker Notes
Add your comment to any document, file or email, which is visible by simply mouseover the respective document.

· POP3 and IMAP support for Mail Accounts
EverDesk features full support of POP3 protocol and a limited level of support for IMAP protocol. More features of IMAP protocol will be supported in the future versions of EverDesk.

· Import for Mail and Contacts
Outlook, Outlook Express, theBat, Calypso, Pegasus, Eudora, and more

· Extra Identities
By using this feature you may have multiple identities for different purposes, activities, etc. for ultimate flexibility when sending email.

· Other Unique EverDesk Features
