No more "separate" than Word is separate from Excel or Power Point. While I understand there are other open source Outlook like products available, I and many businesses would prefer to have a Complete Integrated Suite from a single vendor. There are other open source word processors, spreadsheet programs, database programs, etc... But I'd rather have a complete suite from LO than a bunch of separate, incompatible programs. Maybe there's some reason LO doesn't want to compete with Thunderbird, I don't know. But I think LO would gain a lot more users if they included an Outlook like module in their suite. I'm really curious as to why LO doesn't want to do that? It can't be any harder than the other components they've done. It just doesn't make any sense.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
