SOGo Connector does not create any entries in Thunderbird automatically.
Only SOGo Integrator does this.
So I think you did this before ;-)

To add this address book again in Thunderbird, do the following:
1) Open Thunderbirds address book.
2) File --> New --> Remote Addressbook
3) Enter name
4) get URL from web interface by
        * opening "Address Book"
        * click on your global address book
        * search for someone
        * double click on the found contact
        * copy the URL from that opened contact
5) paste that URL into Thunderbirds field "URL:"
6) remove the contact uid and "/edit" part at the end of the URL
7) choose the notifications you want (or not)
8) select "read only"
9) press "OK"

Now it is added, and you can search in it via Thunderbird.

If you want to use this global address book also for autocompletion
while sending emails, you have to open your Thunderbird preferences.
There under "Create" --> Addressing" select "LDAP-Server" and choose
your SOGo global address book.
Close the preferences window.

Hint:
Autocompletion only worked for me after restarting Thunderbird.


Kind regards,
