- Contacts / address books
- Calendar: appointments, meetings, requests, assignments
- Tasks – must have
- Notes – must have, and not exlusively tied to emails

Need a sware that does all this on Android and synchs with MS Outlook, or replaces all MS Outlook features and functions without any loss.

Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone added a journal to Tbird in the months since this article was written? -- mdeck Although I never used Outlook on my home PC, I did use it on my corporate PC, so I’m familiar with journaling — and it’s a feature I’d really like to see in Thunderbird (even better if it’s got a built-in dialer!).

I have a droid and think it will work well by syncing google and thunderbird. Great guide, I’m giving up Outlook too. I have a droid and think it will work well by syncing google and thunderbird.

The add-ons do provide FAR more functionality and it's my choice to install them. So if I want to create my own bloatware I can. My only problem, like you, is mobile phone sync. I have a symbian phone - Nokia N73 - at the moment and I can't find anything that sync's everything (incl contacts). The closest I have found is paid software (MobileMaster) but it doesn't see the symbian contact file apparently. So right now I am missing quite an important tool.....any ideas?
