Use an address book like a contact management tool, phone directory, and information center for your addressing needs.
Address books can store names and addresses, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and much more. You can initiate an instant messaging session from an address book if the instant messaging product is installed and supported.
Entries in an address book can be a contact, group, resource, or organization. For information about the information you can store in each type of entry, see Managing Contacts, Managing Groups, Managing Resources and Managing Organizations.
