What is the format of the Mulberry addressbook?
Mulberry uses a tab-delimited text format for storage of local addressbooks. On network addressbooks, the format is stored slightly differently depending on which protocol (IMSP or ACAP) is used. For the practical purposes of importing external addressbooks, however, the field order for importing to a network addressbook is the same as a local Mulberry addressbook. Mulberry currently can import the following addressbook formats: • Pine • Eudora • Netscape/Communicator and Netscape-compatible • LDIF (use the Communicator plugin) • Outlook/Outlook Express • Quickmail • vCard • Any tab-delimited text file with the proper order. Mulberry can also export to any of these formats. Hint: more than one Mulberry user has observed that Mulberry can be a very easy to use tool if you need to translate from one of the above formats to another, as at this writing these other programs don’t understand one another’s formats. Cute! The field order for a Mulberry address book is as follows.
