Hi all, I'd second this. MS-Outlook is generally pretty bad, but it has some nice PIM-oriented features. For instance, you can drag an article into the calendar and associate the article with a certain date. Saves retyping everything into diary. I was also thinking that perhaps a hyper diary may be a nice thing. The diary would accept hyperlinks (much the way that gnus does now, or Asvin Goel's Records Mode http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~ashvin/software.html). Then you could write a lisp function to save your article to a text file (or mbox) and add a hyperlink to your diary. Hmmmm. Perhaps beyond the purview of gnus, but it'd sure be slick. gnus already has a nice interface to BBDB, perhaps it can be easily extended to Calendar and diary.
