About Address Book
Address Book is the contact management component of Sun Java System Communications Express. Using the Address Book, you can search for existing contacts and groups, manage contacts and groups, create contacts and groups of contacts sharing the same profile, activity, or organization, and import or export contact information between Sun Java System Communications Express, Microsoft Outlook and Netscape address books.
From the Address Book page you can:
- Add, sort, edit, delete and organize contacts and groups within an address book.
- Send emails or view calendars of contacts listed in the address book.
- Import or export the contact information from or to other address book formats for example Netscape Address Book, Outlook Address Book, or Sun ONE Address Book.
- Search the corporate or a remote address books in addition to your own personal address book.
- Print an address book.
When you first select the Address Book tab, all the contacts and groups in your personal address book is displayed. You can later select an address book from the Current Address Book drop-down list to view contacts and groups in it. The Current Address Book drop-down list has your personal address book including your remote address books and the corporate directory of your organization.
Use the Address Book toolbar options mentioned in Table-1 to manage the repository of contact information. The table consists of three columns; the first lists the toolbar option, the second the icon for the option, and the third the purpose of this option.
Note
The Address Book toolbar options are disabled when viewing contacts present in the corporate or a remote directory.
