Thank you both for the pointers. I had, in fact, looked at the emacswiki reference before, but the only bbdb to csv exporter requires vm, which I don't use. bbdb-to-outlook.el does looks very promising, but can one simply take out the file from the distribution and use it on its own? That is, can I copy it to my lisp directory and load it somewhere in my ~/.emacs? Cheers, -- Sebastian P.
