That may be the program that Bill was trying to recall, but I will let him respond.

There are interesting programs, but I am limited to portable or web-based software programs. I guess what I am searching for is a task/information manager that handles mail like a task, but that displays it in a way that I can have several items/messages and their content visible at once. Most use a three pane layout, and this only allows you to see the contents of one item/message at a time. I do want a left pane for folders and tagging, but I want items/messages to expand or collapse like Workflowy so you can see more than one at a time. I suspect that Toodledo might offer this type of layout, but I would need a subscription upgrade to see. I know that I am being somewhat picky here, but I do believe that this layout possibly exists.
