Hi Graeme,

thanks for the hint. I will make sure watching it.

For Sales comms in particular, view C2C talk on converting Hubspot to Odoo CRM at last Odoo XP, highly underrated talk. That does allow using a traditional client and also gives a more modern approach to email management than simply an IMAP folder.

I thought to myself that we are certainly not the only ones who have

nobody in the OCA ever even ideated on such a functionality or is it 
worthless (i am simply to conservative to change my mind). Or even 
better does some publicly available concept, module, code exist that i 
am just not aware of ?

Any thoughts, ideas on that

Best and thanks for any reply upfront

Frederik
