I haven't used a "contact manager" as such. I'm experimenting with Evolution, but "real" work is interfering right now.

tool, but has no fields for actual snail addresses. Must I create a database in Base?

In my opinion, (for what it's worth) I'd rather have several different
tools, each of which performs its duties well, than one tool that does everything in a mediocre manner. Which is to say, I'd rather have OOo stay as simple as possible, and use special-purpose tools for DTP, Database management, email,

calendar and contact management, etc.

Write, Calc and Draw are the minimum for an office suite.  Impress is a good

addition. Base is a bit much, since it has little to share with the rest, nearly as I can tell. Beyond that, the applications are far to diverse to fall within the normal "Office Automation" spectrum. It would be nice if they would all use and ODF, but that will take time, I expect.
