Was it really that enthralling? A couple of other things that might be worth considering: Portal Systems offer a commercial product (http://www.portalsys.co.za/addressbook/) which transfers information from the /etc/passwd file directly to the Windows address book. MS-Outlook does have quite sophisticated import facilities which can be scripted (but AFAIK, not scheduled). > Have you looked at any of the other "Groupware" apps available? You might also want to have a look at Twiggi (scheduling, todo, Email, address book - GPL), Internal Afairs (scheduling - commercial), dotproject (PM - commercial) and A.C.E. (PM - commercial), not mention MRBS (GPL) - a simple schduling application. See http://freshmeat.net for URLs Hope your not too confused!
