Time Narration
00:00 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Address Book in Mozilla Thunderbird.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn how to add, view, modify and delete contacts from the Address Book.
00:14 We will also learn how to:
00:16 * Create a New Address Book.
00:18 * Delete an existing Address Book.
00:20 * Import contacts from other mail accounts.
00:24 Here we are using Mozilla Thunderbird 13.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.
00:32 What is an Address Book?
00:34 An address book works the same way as the Contacts feature in your mobile phone.
00:39 You can use the Address Book to create and maintain contacts.
00:45 There are two types of Address Books in Thunderbird:
00:48 Personal address book allows you to create new contacts.
00:53 Collected address book automatically collects the email addresses from outgoing or sent mails.
00:59 Click on the Thunderbird icon in the Launcher.
01:02 The Thunderbird window opens.
01:05 Now, let’s learn to add contacts in the Personal Address Book.
01:10 From the Main menu, click on Tools and Address Book.
01:14 The Address Book dialog-box appears.
01:17 In the left panel, you can see both the Personal and Collected Address Books.
01:23 By default, the Personal Address Book is selected in the left panel.
01:28 The right panel is divided into two halves.
01:31 The top half displays the contacts.
01:34 The bottom half displays the complete details of the contact selected at the top.
01:40 Let’s create a new contact.
01:44 In the toolbar, click New Contact.
01:47 The New Contact dialog-box appears.
01:50 Click the Contact tab.
01:53 Let’s enter first as "AMyNewContact".
01:57 Enter Email as USERONE at GMAIL dot COM.
02:02 Note that the field Display Name is automatically updated with the First Name.
02:10 Click the Private tab. Use this tab to store the complete postal address for the contact.
02:18 You can use the Work, Other and Photo tabs to store relevant information and even the photograph of the contact.
02:26 Click OK.
02:29 The contact is added and displayed in the right panel.
02:34 In the same manner, let’s add two more contacts "VMyNewContact" and "ZMyNewContact".
02:48 Let’s suppose we want to sort contacts by name.
02:52 From the Main Menu, click on View >> Sort by and Name.
02:58 Notice that the contacts are sorted in the ascending order, by default.
03:04 To sort it in the ascending order- from the Main Menu, click on View >> Sort by and Ascending.
03:13 Alternately, in the Address Book dialog-box, from the right panel, simply click on Name.
03:19 The names are now sorted in the descending order!
03:24 Now, let’s search for a contact.
03:27 We can search for a contact using the Name or the By Email.
03:33 Let’s search for the name "AMyNewContact".
03:37 Go to the Address Book dialog-box.
03:40 In the Search field, enter "AMyNewContact".
03:45 Notice, the Search field.
03:47 Instead of the Magnifying glass icon, a small cross icon is displayed.
03:54 Only the contact "AMyNewContact" is displayed in the top right panel.
04:01 Now, in the Search field, click the cross icon.
04:05 All the contacts are now visible in the top right panel.
04:09 Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
04:13 Search for emails by Subject.
04:16 Suppose the contact information for "ZMyContact" has changed.
04:21 Can we edit this information? Yes, we can!
04:26 From the right panel, let’s select ZMyNewContact.
04:30 Now, right-click for the context menu and select Properties.
04:36 The Edit Contact for ZMyNewContact dialog-box appears.
04:42 Let’s change the name to "MMyNewContact".
04:46 Now, let’s change the field Display Name to "MMyNewContact".
04:53 We shall also add a Work Title and Department.
04:57 Click the Work tab.
04:59 In the Title enter "Manager" and in Department enter "HR". Click OK.
05:06 Look at the contact details in the bottom right panel. It has been updated.
05:13 Now, how can we delete unwanted contacts in Thunderbird?
05:18 First, select the Contact.
05:20 Right-click to view the context menu and click Delete.
05:25 A confirmation dialog-box appears. Click OK.


05:30 The contact is deleted and is no longer displayed on the contact list.
05:37 Thunderbird also allows you to create your own address book.
05:41 This is in addition to the two default books, that is, Personal Address Book and Collected Addresses.
05:50 Let’s create a new Address Book.
05:53 Remember, you must keep the Address Book dialog-box open.
05:58 From the Main menu, go to File, click New and select Address Book.
06:04 The New Address Book dialog-box appears.
06:08 In the Address Book Name field, type: "Office Contacts". Click OK.
06:16 The address book we created is displayed in the left panel.
06:20 You can use this address book in the same manner you use the default address books.
06:28 Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
06:31 Create a new Address Book and add contacts to it.
06:36 Next, let’s learn to delete an Address Book.
06:41 Remember, when you delete an address book all the contacts associated with it are also deleted.
06:50 To delete the address book "Office Contacts", from the left panel, select it.
06:56 Right-click to view the context menu and select Delete.
07:01 A dialog-box requesting you to confirm the delete action appears. Click OK.
07:10 The address book is deleted.
07:14 Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
07:17 Create a new address book called "Additional Office Contacts".
07:22 Use the Edit option in the Address Book toolbar.
07:27 Delete this address book.
07:30 From the Main menu in the Address Book dialog-box, select Edit and Search Addresses.
07:37 Use the Advanced Search option to search for addresses.
07:43 Thunderbird allows us to import contacts from other Mail accounts too.
07:48 This way we can update the contacts without losing contact information.
07:55 Let’s import the contacts from our Gmail account.
07:59 First we open the Gmail account.
08:02 Open a fresh browser and then type the url: "www.gmail.com". Press Enter.
08:12 The Gmail home-page appears.
08:15 Enter the 'Username' as STUSERONE at gmail dot com. Enter your password.


08:24 Click Sign In. The Gmail window appears.
08:29 For the purposes of this tutorial, we have created four contacts in Gmail.
08:35 From the top-left of the Gmail window, click on GMail and Contacts.
08:41 The Contacts tab appears.
08:44 Click More and select Export.


08:48 The Export contacts dialog-box appears.
08:51 In the field "Which contacts do you want to export?", select All contacts.
08:58 In the field Which export format?, select Outlook CSV format. Click Export.
09:06 The Opening contacts.csv dialog-box appears.
09:11 Select Save File. Click OK.
09:15 The Downloads dialog-box appears.
09:18 This is the default folder in which the document is saved.
09:23 The file is saved as contacts.csv, in the default Downloads folder.
09:30 Close the Downloads dialog-box.
09:34 From the Main menu, click Tools and select Import.
09:39 The Import dialog-box appears.
09:42 Select Address Books. Click Next.
09:47 From the Select type of file list, click on Text file. Click Next.
09:54 Browse to Downloads folder.
09:57 Click the Select which types of files are shown button and select All Files.
10:04 Select contacts.csv. Click Open.
10:10 The Import Address Book dialog-box appears.
10:14 Ensure that the box First record contains field names is checked.
10:20 In this tutorial, we shall check and match only the First Name, Last Name and Primary Email fields.
10:28 And uncheck all the other fields from the left side.
10:33 The First Name on the left is already aligned with the First Name on the right.
10:39 You must use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to match Mozilla Thunderbird Address Book fields column on the left
10:47 with Gmail Record data to import column on the right.
10:52 Let’s select Last Name field on the left and click the Move Down button.
10:58 Notice that the Last Name on the Address Book fields column and the Last Name on the Record data to import column are now aligned.
11:07 Now, select Primary Email and click on the Move Down button until it is aligned to E-mail Address. Click OK.
11:17 A message that the address book has been imported is displayed. Click Finish.
11:24 The Gmail Address Book is imported to Thunderbird.
11:28 In the left panel of the Address Book dialog-box, a new folder contacts has been added.
11:36 Click on contacts.
11:38 The First names along with the email address are displayed.
11:43 We have imported the Gmail address book to Thunderbird!
11:48 Close the Address Book by clicking on the red cross on the top left corner of the dialog-box.
11:55 Finally, log out of Thunderbird. From the Main menu, click File and Quit.
12:02 This brings us to the end of this tutorial on Thunderbird.
