I don't need groupware capabilities. All what I want (and other small business and home users) is a *simple* way to access my address book with different mail clients from different locations. It's fine if the client can handle this format, but if not I still must be able to read the data with *any* client. Wouldn't it be nice if you can store the address book on the ISPs IMAP server and then access it even from an Internet cafe if you are on travel? Or share it between Mozilla and Outlook Express...
