My problem was that I used the 'addressbook' function via ssh on the host.. That does not work. As soon as I did it directly in the phones terminal, it worked fine. Importing from VCard is much better that reading from SIM :-) About exporting, the wiki says: "Exporting to VCF can be done via qtmail's 'send all' function (which only supports sms, bluetooth)" In the Contact list, there is a 'Send all' function in the 'Options' menu. I think that's the one they are talking about. I assume you can use it to sent a VCard file to your desktop. I haven't tried it yet.... /Jette _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
