It's really unpractical on a number of points. We're avoiding the Evolution model in a simple manner, by putting these "bloated" features in a plugin instead of the core, and by paying attention to what we develop. @Hoa: er, no, not different apps !

Maybe a sync would be helpful? This is more useful than graphical smileys ;) But anyway: really thanks a lot for this great program and the useful vcalendar plugin! With the GTK2 Version, Sylpheed Claws is my main mail program, it's fantastic :) @colin:

We'll have to do it one day. Regarding the graphical smileys, hmm, I'm not sure, I find it ugly :) @anonymous: Yes, the addressbook needs work ! We’ll have to do it one day.

Now, with an enhanced addressbook Sylpheed Claws would be a really nice little gem of the PIMs around!! Especially with the great scripting/rules support. For addressbook some ideas: - more fields like birthdays ... yes, a birthday should be placed to a person more than the "5th field for a IM address" - LDAP write support And of course, for optical reasons ;) please replace a smiley with a picture (like in Thunderbird).
