Laszlo Systems, the sponsor of the OpenLaszlo project, launched a hosted preview of the Laszlo Mail application today. We encourage you to try it out at http://www.laszlomail.com, to tell your friends, and to send the developers your feedback.

This is an excellent example of the kind of application that can be built using the OpenLaszlo platform.  We congratulate the Laszlo Mail team on this exciting new application.  As Jonathan Boutelle says : " It feels like a candy-coated swiss army knife, an appealing mix of aesthetics and pragmatic design."

You can read about some of the best practices and performance optimizations that the Laszlo Mail team (and others!) have contributed, on the OpenLaszlo wiki.

From the product page:

Laszlo Mail puts a high-polish interface on Web mail with features and performance that outshine others - consistently in any browser. The design center of Laszlo Mail focuses on high quality of user experience where the application uses dynamic layout and animation changes to help users to stay oriented within application interfaces and efficiently complete email tasks.
