Kontact is the integrated Personal Information Manager of KDE, but can be used with other systems as well.
It supports email, address books, calendars, tasks, news feeds and much more. |
The Kontact suite is the powerful PIM solution of KDE. It lets you handle email, agenda, contacts and other 'personal' data together in one place by delivering innovations to help you manage your communications more easily, organize your work faster and work together more closely, resulting in more productivity and efficiency in digital collaboration.
Components
KDE Kontact supports various groupware servers. When using these servers your workgroup has access to features like shared email folders, group task lists, calendar sharing, central address books and meeting scheduling.
Kontact consists of the Kontact PIM back end and the graphical applications connecting to the back end. Special 'agents' (say a facebook agent) are employed to get new data in and merge it in the existing data set (for example contacts, news). Due to the clean infrastructure new agents are easy to develop.
These programs together form Kontact:
- Akregator - Read your favorite feeds
- KAddressBook - Manage your contacts
- KMail - Mail client
- KNotes - Sticky notes for your Desktop
- KOrganizer - Calendar and scheduling, Journal
- Summary - Summary screen in Kontact
- KJots - Your ideas organised in a Notebook
