I got tired of fooling around with address books and setup an LDAP server
at home. I have a cron job that dumps the data to LDIF if the current
database has been updated since the last LDIF dump.

I can then include the LDIF in my backup plan and also use it to import
addresses into other mail clients. It's also not too hard to write a perl
script to convert the LDIF to an HTML file that's suitable for viewing and
printing.

Pine, Evolution, and Netscape support LDAP. Mozilla supposedly supports
it, but I could not get it to actually work. There are scripts and
settings that allow mutt to use LDAP.
