Here is another Outlook integration lead, Using IE one can have a tiddlywiki with the following HTML in a tiddler;
<HTML> <OBJECT classid=CLSID:0006F063-0000-0000-C000-000000000046 id=ViewCtlFolder width="600" height="650"> <param name="Folder" value="\\LocalonlyOnBlueEye\Admin\Non Project Work\!DTF\Agenda"> <param name="Namespace" value="MAPI"> <param name="Restriction" value><param name="DeferUpdate" value="0"></OBJECT> </HTML> as far as I recall as long as the wiki has the embedded HTML working it will display the content of the folder with click-able mail. The above example points to a specific folder of mine in an offline PST The following are the generic outlook folders; <param name="Folder" value="Inbox"> <param name="Folder" value="Calendar"> <param name="Folder" value="Tasks"> <param name="Folder" value="Contacts"> <param name="Folder" value="Notes"> Outlook needs to be running at least when you open an email. In Outlook you can set a home page for some folders, use properties on the folder and browse to your special wiki. When you click on the folder name it will load a browser subwindow of that tiddlywiki. From within that wiki you can use the above code to review mails in the nominated folder. Or just access the wiki directly from IE. The emails never actually get into your wiki, but they can be reviewed from there. You could create a tiddler for each outlook Folder say then use all the great Tagging features on those tiddlers, or add keywords into the tiddler so the required one comes up during a search. I would love to get this working in FireFox but have no idea how.
