Calendar Integration
Calendar in the Mail-suite applications helps you to better schedule your days without having to close your mailbox. You can view your events, events that you're a part of, be reminded of events, and so on with the Calendar application. The Calendar integration, in addition to the app, allows you to contextually create events from the emails you receive. The RHS widget can also be used to get a quick view of the day's events and the month's agenda. You can also quickly create and edit events using the widget.
