Contacts

[Nurlan]

Hello everybody. I have a question about contacts.
I added 100 accounts in zimbra.
But my contacts is empty. How to add all this contacts to everyone in contact list?

All local addresses are stored in a "special" addressbook called the Global Address List or GAL. Assuming you did not check the option "Hide in GAL" in your CoS or account settings, they should automatically show up once you start typing a name or address in the To: or Cc: field.

You should update your forum profile with the output form the following command (do not post the output in this thread):

zmcontrol -v

I suppose my question would be, where and how did you add these 100 accounts to your 'contacts'? Please describe exactly what you did.

Release 6.0.8_GA_2661.RHEL5_64_20100824100342 CentOS5_64 NETWORK edition.

I added accounts manually in administrator page. Accounts -> new -> blah blah blah.
HIDE GAL is not checked.

Release 6.0.8_GA_2661.RHEL5_64_20100824100342 CentOS5_64 NETWORK edition.

Please put that in your forum profile so we don't have to keep asking you which version you have installed every time you post.

That's not adding Contacts to your address book, that is adding new accounts to the system.

Have a read of the Administration Guide.
