We've recommended Thunderbird in the past
(with some folks sticking
with GMail, yours truly included), but unfortunately it doesn't meet
all our needs.
Why?
All things considered, I like Thunderbird, but it has two main issues for
us.
#1 - No integrated & centralized calendar.
What about the Sunbird/Lightning
extension for the Thunderbird. I think
that the number of manipulation to setup them will be the same with the
amount of setup for Google Calendar.
It just _does not_ work. I use Gmail only for lists, Thunderbird for
every other email. But calendaring in TB is just buggy as hell. And
I've been trying for years, being the Mozilla fan that I am. It never
really gets better :( So google calendar it is.
And as a small comment: Thunderbird is free (as in
freedom) application
and allows to do whatever manipulation with the code (and there are a
bunch of thunderbird customization already available there) - thus if
there is a need this need can solved by the community. - And Wikimedia
could make a call for improvements in the code of TB, which I believe
would have be taken into consideration by the developers. And more
people could have used the results of that - thus generating a better
and smoother application (as in the wikipedia articles).
+1. I really think Wikimedia should poke the Mozilla Foundation on that ;).
