(see fastmail webmail). Also, getting IMAP working as it should would be even better!

Other than that, I'm completely in lov with the use of a tabbed interface - a la Lotus Notes.

The Bat is well-developed, robust and mighty mail client. All in place - mailboxes, settings, filters. Compared to it, Thunderbird is rather "ugly duckling" :( I mean The Bat, not Outlook (which I actually hate). The Bat is well-developed, robust and mighty mail client.

Outlook, even Express, is heavy because it want to do too much things. I prefer the UNIX way "do one thing but do it well". an e-mail client should only focus on emails, a usenet reader should only focus on usenet, and a calendar should only only focus on calendars. After that, it's all a story about communication between applications. Roman ShaRP, I don’t agree. Outlook, even Express, is heavy because it want to do too much things.

But there is long-long way to go for Thunderbird.

Spicebird is already out in beta and has many of these features. Cleaned up interface, calendar integration, jabber IM integration are already there. Still, Spicebird has a long way to go. The point is, Thunderbird is no longer just competing with Outlook and GMail, now it's also competing with clones of itself. I’m looking forward to it, but they had better move fast.

But that's only a baby step. They need to be able to sync with the PDA's out there (palm, PocketPC, Windows Mobile, Linux). No business professional is going to switch unless they can port their contacts, calendar, call logs to a PDA. An integrated calendar will be nice. But that’s only a baby step.
