[chandler-users] Question, and Dreaming in Code

[tim at timothyjcoulter.com]

Chandler Users!

I just finished the book Dreaming in Code, which sparked great interest in
the Chandler project. I've tried out the new release, and can't help but
be excited about Chandler replacing Outlook and all the Outlook clones.
The only thing keeping me from ditching Evolution (the clone I use) is
that Chandler only receives/syncs up with emails sent via Chandler,
instead of all emails sent to my address. Is there a beta out that has
this functionality? If not, is there a time when this functionality will
be made available (in beta)?

I'd love to do some testing in my spare time. If there's a different list
for testing, please point me to it. :)

Thanks!
