That would be easy. Maybe a vcard export even?

I think so, yes. Org-contacts let you be free about how you manage your
contacts, so it should adapt to your current organization.


Great -- thanks for the response. Though, did you see my other email? I've pointed it toward my contacts.org file and it wants to keep doing something odd with agenda and asking to remove lines from the file itself. What do you think about the errors I'm getting? To duplicate:

Is anyone else having that issue?


Thanks,
