+<h2 id="about_address_books">About Address Books</h2>
+
+<p>Address books store email addresses and contact information for people you
+ typically send mail to, such as colleagues, friends, and family.
+ &brandShortName; Mail &amp; Newsgroups provides you with two address books:
+ the Personal Address Book and the Collected Addresses&mdash;and you can
+ create additional address books as well. You can also import address books
+ from other mail programs and previous versions of &brandShortName;. The
+ contents of these address books are stored locally on your hard disk.</p>
+
+<p>Your address book may also list email addresses from an LDAP directory,
+ which is located on an LDAP directory server. The directory server stores
+ email addresses of people that are not included in your locally-stored
+ address books. The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an
+ industry-standard method for accessing Internet or intranet directory
+ services such as corporate address books.</p>
+
+<h4>Personal Address Book</h4>
+
+<p>Use the Personal Address Book to add specific names of your choice. You can
+ create mailing lists and edit individual address entries.</p>
+
+<h4>Collected Addresses</h4>
+
+<p>By default, the Collected Addresses automatically collects the email
+ addresses contained in outgoing mail messages. Addresses from outgoing
+ messages are stored in the Collected Addresses as soon as you click Send.</p>
+
+<h4>LDAP Directory (if available)</h4>
+
+<p>An LDAP directory (also known as an address lookup service) stores email
+ addresses of recipients who are not in your locally-stored address books.
+ LDAP directories offer you access to large, centrally maintained databases
+ of email addresses, which is especially useful with
+ <a href="mailnews_preferences.xhtml#address_autocompletion">address
+ autocompletion</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Automatic address collection is enabled by default. To change automatic
+ address collection settings, begin in the Mail window:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>
+ <span class="noMac">Edit</span> menu and choose Preferences.</li>
+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, click Addressing. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &amp; Newsgroups to expand the
+ list.)</li>
+ <li>Under Email Address Collection, select <q>Add email addresses to my</q>
+ and choose whether you want:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Personal Address Book.</li>
+ <li>Collected Addresses.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>Click OK.</li>
+</ol>
+
+<h4>Opening the Address Book Window</h4>
+
+<p>To open the Address Book window:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Open the Window menu and choose Address Book, or click the Address Book
+ icon in the lower-left corner of any &brandShortName; window.

+ </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h4>Changing the Address Book Window Display</h4>
+
+<p>To customize how the Address Book window and the cards are displayed:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the Window menu and choose Address Book. You see the Address Book
+ window.</li>
+ <li>In the Address Book window, open the View menu and choose from the
+ following display options:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Choose Show/Hide, and then select the item you wish to uncheck (hide)
+ or check (show).</li>
+ <li>Choose Show Name As, and then select how you want card names

+<h2 id="creating_a_new_address_book_card">Creating a New Address Book Card</h2>
+
+<p>Address book cards can be used to store names, postal addresses, email
+ addresses, phone numbers, and information such as whether the addressee
+ prefers to receive plain-text or HTML-formatted messages.</p>
+
+<p>To create an address book card for an individual:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Click the Address Book icon on the status bar or open the Window menu and
+ choose Address Book.</li>
+ <li>Click New Card. (If you have multiple address books, select the one to
+ which you want to add a card.)</li>
+ <li>Each New Card dialog box has three tabs:
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Contact</strong>: Enter the following information:
+ <ul>
+ <li>First and Last (first and last name of person as you want it to
+ appear in the address book).</li>
+ <li>Display name (the name that appears in the <q>To</q> field of the
+ Compose window).</li>
+ <li>Nickname (a shortcut or alias for the real name).</li>
+ <li>Email address (primary and additional address).</li>
+ <li>Prefers to receive messages formatted as: If you know this
+ recipient can read HTML-formatted messages (such as messages that
+ include links, images, or tables), choose HTML. If this recipient
+ can only read messages sent as plain text (no formatting), then
+ choose Plain Text. If you don&apos;t know or are not sure, choose
+ Unknown. If you choose Unknown, &brandShortName; Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups determines the sending format based on the Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups Send Format settings in the Preferences dialog box. If
+ Mail &amp; Newsgroups still can&apos;t determine the correct
+ format, Mail &amp; Newsgroups will prompt you to choose a sending
+ format when you send the message.</li>
+ <li>Allow remote images in HTML mail: If you want to allow this
+ sender to have remote content they send you displayed in your
+ message window.</li>
+ <li>Screen name (the AIM contact name).</li>
+ <li>Phones (enter phone numbers for this person)</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Address</strong>: Type additional information such as street
+ address, phone number, and URL.

+ <p><strong>Tip</strong>: If you enter address information,
+ &brandShortName; displays a Get Map button next to the address when
+ you view this entry&apos;s address book card in your address book.
+ Clicking the Get Map button displays a web page that contains a map
+ to the address.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Other</strong>: Store any additional information you
+ want.</li>

+ import its entries into the Address Book window as a new address book. Keep
+ in mind that when you upgrade a user profile from an earlier version of
+ &brandShortName;, your address books are automatically included, so
+ there&apos;s no need to import them.</p>
+
+<p>You can import address books from Netscape 6, Netscape 7, Eudora, Outlook,
+ Outlook Express, or text files (LDIF, tab-delimited (.tab), comma-separated
+ (.csv), or text (.txt) formats). When you import an address book, Mail &amp;
