Personally, for PIM, I use my Palm. Even if you don't have a palm, you could use one of the palm syncers, like gnome-pilot and never sync... Before that, I used Remind or a postgresql/python cobble when my main box was my 486 (now its an Athlon). Before that, I just used a plain text file that I wrote in a consistant format so I could use sort on it. For email, I use mutt. What is the advantage of having a PIM integrated with email? That's what VCs are for. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
