Hello,

first, I realize this mailing list has the "-devel" suffix, but I just didn't find any more suitable place to ask for support. Sorry if I am bothering anyone—feel free to ignore me if that is the case.

My question: Is there a way to manage lists/groups of contacts with abook? By "manage" I mean not mainly (but also) seeing and editing them in the interactive interface, but most importantly having them show up as results of "abook --mutt-query …", so that one could easily use them in a MUA.

What I found so far:
– There is an editable "Group" field in each contact's "OTHER" tab in abook. I couldn't find a way to search for group names, though (neither from within abook, nor with --mutt-query). – There is a commit implementing "mutt groups support" in abook, dating two years back:
http://sourceforge.net/p/abook/git/ci/8420245db43e7f7ac1c8414a275e633e1d56c883/
From what I understand, however, this is only for converting from/to mutt alias files manually (by command line), not for having them as part of abook's database permanently and dynamically. Or is there some way to achive this?

Any help or directions would be much appreciated.

Carlos
