I created a Personal Address book with two sub folders under it, using the Contact 4.4.1 program. After reboot, I went to Kmail --> Composer --> Select --> address book and the Personal address book is not an option to select.
What I'm trying to do is create the equivalent of a distribution list since I do not see any method to create one.
I do see a Save Distribution List under tools. Does this mean I have to select all 100+ plus names that the email goes to and then Save it as a distribution list?
How do i get the personal address book to show up under Select?
A pointer to a how to or a readme would help.
When you create a new address book, it does not seem to be used immediately, but needs to be added as a resource for KDE. Personal Settings (Advanced Tab) -> KDE Resources Then select "Contacts" from the dropdown box and add the address books you created. You need to point to the right directory and you probably want to give the new resource a more meaningful name than the default. After that you need to may to restart KMail or even KDE (I just had to restart Kontact) and your address books should be available. Hope that helps. -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
