Right. Just like when you click on any "mailto" link in a webpage, TB opens up
with a new message, right? This is because TB is the registered mail handler.
WinPIM works similar (as will most other PIMs). It stores email addresses in its
contact book. (VERY powerful contact book by the way.)When you click on any of
these addresses, TB opens up and sends a message to that contact.

I'm afraid so. Sorry for making it confusing :) What I meant was that WinPIM can
open up TB as I described above(so it can 'talk' to TB), but TB can't open up
WinPIM because there is no 'registered PIM'. So I said it can't 'talk back'.

Actually there might be a way to make TB open up your PIM using the scheduler. I
haven't played much with the scheduler though so you'll have to experiment to
see if this is true. TB can run programs at certain times using the scheduler,
if I recall correctly.


Cheers,
