Mailmanagr allows you to send e-mail messages to various categories within your Basecamp projects

Mailmanagr for Basecamp is now open for general use:

Mailmanagr is an e-mail interface for the popular Basecamp Web-Based Project Management system.  Whether you’ve got clients who are having trouble breaking the e-mail habit, or if you’re just looking for a solution for when you’re using your mobile phone, Mailmanagr fits the bill.

The signup email has some additional details:

mailmangrMailmanagr, in it's current form, will allow you to send e-mail messages (complete with attachments) to various categories within your Basecamp projects. You can set up an e-mail address for each category, or just set up an "E-mail dropbox" category, and create an address for that. The decision is yours!...

You can use Mailmanagr in a number of ways, here's a few ideas:

1. Create an imaginary user (mine is called Dave Helper) and set that account up with e-mail addresses. Then you can just "forward a message to Dave", and he'll post it for you.

2. Create a single catch-all category (I've used "E-mail Dropbox") and forward messages there.

3. Create addresses for each individual category on every project.
