[chandler-users] Outlook Import

[Amer Child]

Jeff,
	Thanks for the heads up.  So if you can answer these couple of user
questions for it would be helpful.  I really like the feel and everything
but is there a way to drag an email to chandler for tracking purposes (i.e.
from outlook?)  Also is there a better way to delete categories?

Thanks 
Amer

Thanks for your interest.  Unfortunately, Chandler isn't a full featured
email client yet.  Because Chandler can't replace most people's mail
needs, it doesn't yet offer tools to help people move from Outlook to
Chandler.

Chandler will import standard iCalendar files for events and tasks, and
it can read IMAP folders, but it doesn't yet have mail rules like most
modern mail clients, so those won't move over.

I'm hoping that Chandler's pre-1.0 feature set will still prove useful
as a complement to existing mail clients.

We've heard from several people that are interested in moving from
Outlook to Chandler, despite Chandler's current deficiencies, so we know
this is an important issue.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
