Unless the email that got sucked in to
the IMAP server/proxy was deeply integrated into Chandler (which it
won't be if we don't have basic composition, reply, etc), then I don't
think I would use it. For me the value of e-mail in Chandler is not
every bell and whistle I can think of (and I can think of a lot), but
it's the integration with the workflow and knowledge management
capabilities.
I'm assuming we'll have *basic* composition and reply -- we have very
very basic features now, enough that Pieter sends announcements from
Chandler, and Philippe has experimented with email in Chandler.
Brian Kirsch will do some of this basic work in the next desktop alpha
or two (reply, forward, etc.)
Another avenue of inquiry that Mimi has mentioned: what's the littlest
bit of email features that we could put up with for people like Ted,
Pieter and Philippe to use it, given the integration benefits?
Philippe had some good insights into what it would require for him to
use it, perhaps he'll chime in when he's back from vacation. ;)
Cheers,
Katie
