I am using Thunderbird in stable branch.

How can I export the address book in this email program ?

Oh, sorry - english question, english answer:

  • open the address book (it’s a new tab)
  • on the left there are “All Addressbooks” and below that all the possibly many separate ones
  • right click on one of these gives a context menu with one option being: Export
  • you get a .cvs file by default, but you can choose different output formats as well at the bottom right
  • Adressbuch aufmachen
  • links hast Du “Alle AdressbĂĽcher” und dann die einzelnen drunter
  • rechts Klick auf eines der einzelnen gibt Dir ein KontextmenĂĽ, welches auch “Exportieren” enthält
  • Du bekommst eine .csv Datei, kannst aber unten auch andere Formate auswählen

This is slightly ambiguous, but I hope I understood you correctly.
ambiguous because you export from (not in)
you import in :nerd_face:

At least it’s not amphibious…

I was only a bit different:

I could export “Gesammelte Adressen” =english “collected addresses”.

Thanks!

… bei mir ist es “Alle Adressbücher”
und darunter zwei separate:
“Persönliches Adressbuch” und “Gesammelte Adressen”
