Adrian, What is your experience with the Thunderbird? I am looking for an alternative to the MS Outlook 2002 which I do not like at all. I am using Windows XP Home.

The View Data Sources feature (F4) is very handy. From there I can view and filter tables and queries. I can drag fields or records into my document, or click the mailmerge button to insert address blocks or other merge information. I've hardly started experimenting with the possibility of using the Base application for accessing and using address book information. Overall, it seems to be a very flexible system which I look forward to exploring more. I'm also sure there's a lot of room for improvement, including cooperation between OpenOffice.org and Mozilla, for example.
