Probably me being thick here, but someone suggested I take a look at Xobni for managing emails/contacts in Microste "Outback" - the thick bit is I can't work out what it's going to help me with.

So anyone able to enlighten me (and tell me to stop wasting my time, smile if appropriate?)

Glorified plug-in that seems to major in social networking stuff.

I'm sure it has other uses...

It helps you find emails so you don't have to look in the inbox, deleted items, sent items etc.. They are all linked to the person in the Xobni pane, click on the person and it brings them all up.

That's all it's good for. A glorified search tool. But it's free.

The early betas were quite good but it's got bloated with networking junk as mentioned above. No longer worth the hassle IMO.

I've not used it for 2 years, has it gone all FriendFace now?
