Hi, Thanks for the thoughtful reply. To clear up an incorrect impression I seem to have created, I'm not a M$ Office user, haven't ever been, except when I've been forced into it at some particular site where I've been on contract. As a Virtual Access user I'm... Shall we say "underwhelmed" by Outlook, of any variety. And in fact most M$ s/w. The purpose behind my suggestion was primarily to offer a route to strengthen the LO package. I agree that it is silly for people to expect LO/OO to be an exact replacement for M$O, but it seems to me that covering the same bases that M$O does would make LO a far more attractive, and easier, step to take for the mainstream. LO/OO/Linux not offering that *easy* step is of course (?) why they still have so much "scope for expansion". I thought I had seen a statement on the LO website which amounted to a claim to match M$O, but I can't find it now so I might've made it up, sorry. It's true that Outlook isn't really "integrated" into the other packages, in fact it seems to me the LO/OO suite is far better integrated, however that's not the point I wanted to make. It's the fact that LO doesn't offer anything in the email category. I agree that using something already existing would be a smart move. It only needs to install it, if that... I just wanna change the world so that those small communities and passionate individuals really make a wide scale difference, just a small step. :-) Mark Stanton One small step for mankind... -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
