This is just a quick hack... call it with the path to your GNUMail address book (usually ~/GNUstep/Library/GNUMail/AddressBook). It will try to read everything from there and put it into Addresses format. The program uses the following heuristic to split GNUMail's name field into Addresses's first/last name fields: 1. Name contains a ",": Split it at the "," and put the first part into last name and the second part into first name. "Müller, Fritz" -> "Müller", "Fritz" 2. Name doesn't contain a ",": Split it at spaces and put the last part into last name and everything else into first name. "Johnny B. Goode" -> "Goode", "Johnny B."
