1193613 2011-04-11 09:41:00 is there a way of exporting your entire address book as vcards rather than individually ? I want to import my outlook express ad book into roundcube but the only way I can seem to find is via vcards, but OE only allows addresses to be converted one at a time.

cheers

If so you can export OE to CSV format - Open the address book from the menu bar, NOT from File export/Address book.

Once open - File -Export-Other address Book- text File(Comma Separated value) - follow on screen instructions.

no tried that but it only allows vcard for some reason. dragged and dropped the addresses into a explorer window which has created them all as individual vcards but now they cannot be imported in bulk it seems, so unless i can create one massive vcard from them its 958 contacts one at a time !!!

1193616 2011-04-11 11:21:00 Never even knew Roundcube existed till this post - so did a bit of a "lookup".

Found two articles, both a couple of years old so they may be out of date, I assume you have tried these. ?

Vcard Article (kb.mediatemple.net(contacts)+into+Roundc ube) and CSV format (trac.roundcube.net)

I thought about downloading same to check it out.
