It's not the summary table part of this that I think is unclear, it's
all the places in the system where we use "redirection" or might use
"redirection". I put "redirection" it quotes to distinguish the
user-visible notion from the underlying implementation.

I think Mimi has already nailed down how she thinks the end-user
design ought to work. The following is taken from a spec referenced in
Bug #2167: Who, Date, not always showing the right attribute.
* *Who column*
* Notes, Tasks, Events - Who - Blank (to the user)
* Messages - Who (from) or (to) - Display *from* if it's incoming
mail. Display *to* if it's outgoing mail.
* Shared messages - Who (from) or (to) - Display *from* if the
sender is me. Otherwise, display *to*.
* *About column*
* [*OI^?

There is a proposal to change the About column to be Subject for
all Kinds. Otherwise, it should be:
* Notes, Tasks, Calendar - About (Title) - Title
* Email - About (Subject) - Subject
* *Date column*
* The following proposal is contingent on the ability to display
an icon in the same cell as text in the summary table widget
* Which date to display in order of priority:
1. Calendar date (if Alarm date is dependent on the Calendar
date: ie. 15 minutes before)
2. Alarm date (even if there is a calendar date so long as
the alarm date is a custom date)
3. Date sent or Date received
If you think this isn't the right way to go, you might follow up with her.
