Evolution Contacts to Zimbra Addressbook

Emil — Sun, 07 Oct 2007 02:50:00 -0400

A question was asked by a fellow Zimbra user by email about exporting contacts from Evolution to Zimbra's Addressbook and I offered him the following advice.

Open a terminal and execute the following command: evolution-addressbook-export --format=csv --output=file.csv
Login to the web mail portion of Zimbra
Go to "Options" from the top-most row of buttons
Choose "Address Book" from the newly created view
Go to the line "Import from .CSV" and choose the file.csv document created earlier and then choose import

NOTE: This should be a temporary solution until the Evolution Connector is in better shape.
