reminded of an appointment or reminder, an alert window should pop up.

Well my point is that it should be included with Mozilla Thunderbird.  People
who use software and computers at work will be VERY likely to use the same at
home.  Software that wins businesses over will win people over.  I don't know
how many people I know who use Outlook simply because they use it at work.

Oh that will be AWESOME!  Thanks!  I hope they make sure it works perfectly
before it is released to the public.  If there are any updates for it, I hope it
won't cancel out old appointments and tasks.

I don't want a calendar in my mail client. For me, at least, this feature would
just add bloat to a program which already has an unreasonably large memory
footprint.

I'd be fine with a toolbar button that launches a separate program though. I
just don't see the value of having it as part of the same main window.

This is essentially bug 401779, and that is more alive then this bug. Duping.
