Now that you've explained (elsewhere in the thread) that your concern with Evolution is the email component, might I suggest having a look at "dates", "contacts" and "tasks" which are very lightweight PIM apps (really designed for small PDA devices -- I use it on my Nokia 770). Their data store is the Evolution Data Server, so they're fully interoperable with Evolution (they're basically another frontend to the same data). For synchronizing to other places, you can use SyncEvolution, which speaks SyncML. (I don't think Google calendar supports synchronizing by SyncML yet, but there are a number of other services that do.) While I'm on the subject, why wouldn't Evolution work in offline mode, without configuring email at all. Each of Evolution's different functions (Tasks, Calendar, Notes, Contacts, Email) gets equal billing in the interface -- they're all equally important citizens, so if you don't want it to do email, you won't find that you're always starting in email mode, or anything like that.
