The wonderful Sparrow mail app is Mountain Lion ready with Retina and Notification Center support

The new version of Sparrow mail for Mac has been released on the Mac App Store, and version 1.6.2 brings Retina support and Mountain Lion compatibility, including Notification Center. A retina-ready version was previously available directly from Sparrow’s site, but this update brings it to Apple’s official store.

There are also bug fixes and the addition of a couple of new features: the ability to always show the info header and always expand all of the messages in a thread.

Sparrow joins many other recent releases like Pixelmator and Tweetbot for Mac in gaining support for Apple’s new Retina display.
