Hmm, I don't know exactly when MacOS synchronizes contacts. I'm 
pretty sure that this does work if using iCloud Contacts, but I might 
be wrong.


Thanks, I've made a note to test how iCloud behaves.

Or can I add the CardDAV source to MailMate directly using some 
hidden option? Or perhaps even specify a shell command to use for 
address completion (since I already set this up for my experiments 
with command line mail agents)?


That last one is not currently possible, but I've considered adding 
it. The GUI (Composer preferences pane) already has a list of 
auto-completion sources and I considered adding some kind of 
script-based alternative. It's not a high priority though :)


Ok! Thanks for the info.

Is this a limitation of using the system address book, or is it 
possible to trigger a refresh from within MailMate?


I haven't added anything to MailMate which explicitly triggers 
synchronization (and I don't know if it is possible at all).
