Contact Management

I don’t know why, but the range of contact management software that is available is crap imho. As far as I know, there is Act!, Maximizer and Goldmine at the bottom end of the spectrum. For one, none of them integrate with IMAP servers. Act! doesn’t even work as a relational database for gods sake, and to top it all off, it uses a propriatry database. I long for a decent contact manager, surely its not that hard to write?
