As kmail is an email application and no pim I doubt that this'll be=20 implemented. Any other opinions on this? Regards Carsten

Any other opinions on this? I agree that it shouldn't be directly implemented in KMail. But we=20 could set an alarm in KOrganizer. KOrganizer then should probably have=20 an option to run a command e.g. 'kmail -replyto <internal_msgid>' if=20 the alarm is triggered. Maybe that's already possible. Or probably the=20 alarm daemon could be extended to be usable from other applications=20 than KOrganizer. I cc the KDE-PIM guys. They should know the best way to implement this.

Any other opinions on this? <snip> Well at least it's a call for closer KMail/KOrganizer integration (or=20 teamwork if you like that better). Maybe an feature to tell KMail to send an already composed message at a=20 given time would match this wish? That could be implemented in KMail=20 though for that to work a KDE-atd infrastructure needs to be in place.

Currently KOrganizer and KAlarm use it. You control the daemon via DCOP and you can register clients which are called when an alarm is due. -- Cornelius Schumacher <schumacher.kde.org>
I have to agree with the original suggestion. I often get e-mail that I find interesting or requires action on my part but I just don't have time to deal with it right not. Now if I could get a reminder in say a week that I need to deal with a particular message I could be much more organized. Software is a tool and tools should be as versitile as possible. Thus the overwelmingly widespread use of the screwdriver... <grin> Just my $.02 Mike Diehl.

I would love that too. All that is needed is a right click option to schedule it to kalarm or kdepim... It would even extend the KDE integration that makes it so easy to use. Thanks to all Henri
