I've been trying to find the best way to manage my contacts. I've dabbled with org-contact and using an Org file with property drawers, I've dabbled with BBDB. I've looked at standalone programs.
My key problem is I need a way to access my contacts in Emacs and Mutt, and send them to my Android phone. Single direction sync is fine. Using a Nextcloud host, org-caldav, and DAVx5 I have already successfully pushed my calendar events to my Android phone. This makes it even more important for me to solve this issue finally. I've considered the merit of a few options: - Use Org-contacts - Pro: It's in org! So easy, lets me keep notes and appointment data easily. - Cons: Doesn't export at all. - BBDB - Pro: It's in Emacs natively, with Org integration. - Pro: Larger users base than Org-contacts, more software - Cons: Exports but requires additional tools to sync Unfortunately looking at the options keeps coming back to how poor general support for CardDAV and vcard files is. In particular, the popular vdirsyncer tool is now looking for a new maintainer, and I had the impression from his list of grievances he might drop it entirely. What could be a decent valid solution to this issue? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Russell Adams rlad...@adamsinfoserv.com PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3
