I'm considering using Open Office as I just purchased a laptop that runs
Vista, and MS Office 2007 is ridiculously expensive.

Here is the question - I've used Ms Outlook as my e-mail client for years. Does Open Office have something similar? I did not see anything mentioned in the product list. Or are you aware of another free, or cheap alternative to
outlook that would be compatible with Open Office?

Thank you.



Mozilla Thunderbird. Has a Calendar extension you can install, which, (IMHO) is VERY nearly up to all the functionality of Outlook. TBird is also customisable with various extensions, which Outlook (in general) is not.

OO can be set to use the Thunderbird Addressbook.

Also, if you currently have Outlook and are satisfied with it, there is no reason that you can't continue to use Outlook after you've converted to OpenOffice.
