I mentioned to him that emacs does this, and that emacs users even have several different choices of how to achieve this. Anyway, he still says he is looking forward to Chandler: http://www.osafoundation.org/feature_summary.htm which will solve his problems. I really don't expect to convince him otherwise, since he seems wedded to a point-and-click interface, I guess. Anyway, there are some features there which I wouldn't know how to implement in emacs/gnus: jabber integration ical integration remote queries of address database Does anybody know of elisp libs for these?
