New Tool Released for SharePoint and Outlook integration

A new tool that makes it simple to place Outlook emails into SharePoint and share those files within a document library has been released by nSynergy. 

eMail management has become a high priority for all businesses, both large and small, with most written correspondence being delivered in email form. Businesses can use tools like SharePoint to manage most of their important business documents, but the inability to easily place emails into SharePoint and share those files within a document library is a problem that many SharePoint users have encountered. nSynergy developed a tool called myDocs to integrate SharePoint and Outlook, and finally solve the problem of managing email within SharePoint.

Drag and drop emails into SharePoint folders

With myDocs you can now use Outlook to drag and drop emails directly into specific folders that represent SharePoint document library folders. You can also view, open, create and access documents and emails directly within Outlook. With emails, documents and other files being accessible through Outlook, everyone in your workplace can use Outlook and SharePoint together to create a powerful yet simple document management tool.
The ability to automatically move emails from Outlook into SharePoint and create document library folders from Outlook is a process that will energize your SharePoint 2007 workflows.

Goodbye Thunderbird?

I am saddened by continued reports that support for Mozilla's email client, Thunderbird, continues to diminish. From DesktopLinux:

The Mozilla Foundation's press release focused on the Firefox 2.12 security fixes. The Foundation also reported, though, in its MFSA (Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory), that these same bugs had been fixed in the fictitious Thunderbird 2.12...

...Still, it is upsetting that Mozilla reports that these problems have been fixed in a version of Thunderbird that doesn't exist. The latest version of Thunderbird is 2.09.

Mitchell Baker posted last September the transfer of Thunderbird from Mozilla to a yet to be seen Mailco organization. Just as DesktopLinux mentioned in their article, I've seen little information about what we can with regards to Thunderbird's future. Perhaps, I'm just not looking in the wrong places?

Matt Asay: The problem with enterprise software, and how e-mail could help

"Where do people spend their days? In e-mail, IM and on the phone. Yet most CRM, ECM, ERP, etc., systems don't really account for this. It strikes me that the biggest product for Microsoft going forward shouldn't be Sharepoint, which requires extra work, but rather Exchange/Outlook, which is where most people spend their time, anyway."

Thunderbird 2.0

Mozilla's flagship e-mail client, Thunderbird, is now available under version 2.0. I've been running the Thunderbird 2.0 nightly development versions for almost six months without any problems. I expect Thunderbird users will have little problem with upgrading from version 1.5 to version 2.0. Straight from the release notes I've listed at the bottom of this post are the new features users will find in Thunderbird 2. None of the new features are earth shattering for e-mail clients but I do find comfort that Mozilla can always teach its software new tricks.

One of the new features that is listed for Thunderbird 2 is the use of Nullsoft Scriptable Install System as the new Windows installer. The message reads that the new installer "resolves many long-standing issues". For anyone that might know, I'd be curious as to exactly what the long-standing issues were? Were the issues merely technical or were there some political open source issues involved with the decision? Just curious as I haven't had the time to dig through some of the developer blogs/notes for the advantages of using the Nullsoft installer.

Webzo.org: SMF and Mambo Flash Tutorials

I cannot stand-up for their services. I cannot tell you if they are legitimate. I cannot give you a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down. If I can't tell you anything, why am I posting something like an advertisement for them? Well for two reasons: 1) they submitted a "story" and 2) they didn't try to spam this site with a comment. You get something for good behavior here.

We at Webzo.org Free Flash Tutorials would like to let CMSReport know that we have released a number of Mambo Flash Tutorials and are official partners of Mambo Communities. In addition we have also purchased MamboTutorials.net.

Webzo has also developed new tutorials for Simple Machine Forums and purchased smftutorials.com.

After much consideration we have decided to expand our empire and devote our selfs to new series such as OpenOffice.org Text Editor Tutorials, and new Outlook Express Tutorials. Webzo!'s Outlook Express series is currently on hold but will be starting again within the coming weeks.
