At my home office I am using Thunderbird from Mozilla with the Calendar

outlook or Novell's email client, Thunderbird comes way short, even with the Calendar add-in. The Lightning add-in looks more promising, but still does
not have the functionality of Outlook.

It saddens me to say it, but I am going to have to start using Outlook
again. OpenOffice will still be my office suite, but Outlook is a necessity,
until a comparable product comes to the market that will integrate as
tightly with OpenOffice as Outlook does with M$ Office.

I'm surprised that OpenOffice/Sun are not working on a major PIM project,
considering this seems to be the singularly most asked for addition to
OpenOffice. :)


OpenOffice.org is an office/productivity suite and Outlook is a communication bundle. To do a project like this will be a big deviation of resources. Just because MSO package a PIM under their same bundle doesnt mean is part of an office suite. None of the other office suites out there package a PIM aplication.

I suggest looking for a PIM application. Linux is a better platform for this were you have a choice between Kontact, Evolution, Zimbra and other PIM in similar fashion.
