[lug] OT: outlook replacement

[metcalf at attglobal.net]

Yes, according to my Star Office 5.1 manual there is a calendar function
called StarSchedule which is linked to a PIM.  I've never used either
function in StarOffice so I have no idea of how well these functions
function.  However, StarOffice's price is a prime attraction.
