Try to do that in Thunderbird! I find that as good integration. In my RCD Notes there is contact management and people may have "communication language" assigned, in turn language may have input method set. What about relations? Person may be member of team A which has main languag German, but in the list of people B, the main language is English, so every relation also requires possible designation of the language. We could say "anything is possible" to program with almost any programming language. But what we do not have is integration. Integration of small features into one. Thunderbid shows how integration works, it helps in usability. Emacs is full of disintegrated interesting small packages, minimizing usability. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
