Does anyone here use an address book for mutt other than abook?
I currently use a combination of OwnCloud to actually maintain and use
(outside mutt) my address book, plus pycardsyncer and pc_query to
interrogate it from mutt.
However it's all a bit messy in a way and there are various minor
issues:-
pycardsyncer and pc_query are now 'deprecated' in favour of
vcardsyncer and khard but these are not available from the Ubuntu
repositories so keeping up to date becomes an issue. Also khard
and vcardsyncer are still rather a convoluted way of maintaining a
mutt address book.
OwnCloud's address book ("Contacts") isn't very good, a major
issue for me is not being able to sort in family/last name order.
As noted above it's just "messy".
So, I was wondering if there are any more elegant approaches. I guess
abook itself is a possibility but I'd really prefer a GUI to add and
change addresses, it's a place where a GUI is just better and easier.
What I'm after is probably, ideally, a local GUI to add and edit
addresses, a simple way to get an E-Mail address into mutt via the
query_command and a way to export to the web in some shape or form.
Any ideas anyone?
