Do you know of a good email client that incorporates a calendar
that
is similar to Outlook?


They are working on Thunderbird 3 which be both a calendar and email
product.


From Mozilla's web site
Thunderbird 3 will include calendaring, better search, and better
overall user experience, much like Firefox 3. We're hoping for a
release
in late 2008 -- the exact timing will depend on who joins this
collective effort.


I forgot to mention, you can use the Lightning add on until this is
released

Why do you need a calendar inside an email program?


I use Outlook and find it is easy to check my schedule and email at the
same time.


When I open email, a popup window will open and show me my appts and
reminders on my calendar. It also allows me to send events and appts to
others via email.


Ditto. Outlook does a good job. Calendar very easy to use.


If you want a really good spam filter for Outlook, give the free SpamBayes
a
try. I find it very effective and no filters to construct.

My wife and some of her peers have written mods on our servers for
Spam Assassin (TM) and Spam Cop (TM) that pick up several million
spams a day for our clients, they never even get through the POP
server. They have sold the packages to several other providers, it
works great. My smallboats account which has been active since the
early 90's gets maybe 2-4 spams a day getting through on a bad day. If
not for the filters, I would get thousands just on that account
alone... It should be on your service provider to stop spam, they
could, but there are a lot of reasons they don't

Note: We do not own Spam Cop or Spam Assassin, just the mods...

==================================

I don't think Embarq, my ISP, would listen to any suggestions from me, so I
just have to be my own first line of defense. SpamBayes is extremely
effective.
