Outlook's consept is very nice, it sees itself as the comm center for a busy person at the office. saying the PIM and mail should not integrated in any way is saying the mail program should not handle it's own addressbook. mutt goes that way. at time to an extreme, but still some of the things remain (addressbook in, SMTP delivery out, for instance) I happen rather to like the integration of evolution, but miss the low milage my hurting wrists get from using keyboard shortcuts rather than the mouse, plus mutt can be run over slow SSH links. > Anyway, unix was not designed this way, one big program that does all. > But several programs which do one small thing good. This movement is > beeing copyied from Microsoft Windows. that's what I like about Qmail and hate about both Exim and sendmail. are you accusing sendmail of being un-Unixy in concept? me and DJB do, and yet it's been there for 15 years now as the undisputed mail server. > There are no good alternatives so we must use them, freedom is lost > again ,since there is one really usable program. Sad but true. well, there are many things that break. sadly, in the Free Sftware world, very little attention is given to keeping backwards compatability. this is good to remove the breaks off of progress, but on the other hand it leaves you stranded sometimes (see my rants about Gnome2 and why I am forced to stick to 1.4, not supported anymore) at the worst case, keep the current kmail RPM (or set it on hold if you use Debian) and keep your kmail when you upgrade to KDE 3.2 you're free to do that afterall too. -- Nature's masterpiece Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ This post is encrypted twice with ROT-13.
