You're definitely looking for abook. If you plan on using abook alongside Mutt you may want to add this to your ~/.muttrc: # Use abook with Mutt set query_command="abook --mutt-query '%s'" macro pager A |'abook --add-email'\n That configures Mutt so that if you type Q at any time you can query your adress book for names (And Mutt will automatically begin composing an e-mail when you select the name you're looking for). It also lets you add e-mails to abook directly from Mutt using A. I personally use it, and I'd advise you should as well, it's very useful. - -- If programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs, by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of these programs. - Richard Stallman -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHRagwg6qL2BGnx4QRAjtYAKCuTR57k9WittggnqYArdYuTHD0/wCfTBQ4 vr5d3v/6r2ukr5BwCSjqI/c= =if+m -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
