Special Reminders

Reminders can be build based on some system information like:
WEB pages, mail messages (see section 'Reminders with Messages') or a card stored to the addressbook.

WEB Page Reminder

The context menu of the browser (Firefox / Seamonkey) has an item "Add Reminder" also. The reminder content depends on the action on the page before using the context menu:
  1. if no content is marked, the web page address will be filled into the URL field
  2. if a text is marked on the page that text will be transfered to the 'Notes' field. This help to remember for a certain section of that web page later on or to use that text for other purpose of the event or todo.
Using 'Drag and Drop' from the web page to the the bow symbol on the statusbar a new reminder will be build -- that an alternative to the first method above.

Reminder for an Addressbook Card

Using the Addressbook (Thunderbird / SeaMonkey / Postbox) reminders can be build for a specific card.
Starting with the card list a context menu offers also the "Add Reminder". This opens a Add Reminder dialog with prefilled items from the card:

The Notes has the name of the addressbook (see example >xforum<), the contact details and more.
The 'Location' is build from the address fields (use the  en/url.png to navigate using Google Maps),
the URL has the primary mail address of the contact (use  en/url.png here for sending a mail directly)

Open a contact from Reminder List entry
Reminders which has been added using the method described above can open the contact directly. The line with the [Contact] entry will have a context menu item "Open Addressbook Card". Using this the contact can be opened and edited directly.
Note: Requires min. Thunderbird 3.0
