Accessing the address book

1. Once inside the SOGo panel, click on the Address Book icon located at the top. This will take you to the section where all your personal contacts are stored.

1. By default, the Personal Address Book will be displayed, which is where the contacts you create yourself are saved. From here, you can view them, filter them by name, and see their details on the right-hand panel.

Creating a new contact

1. To add a new contact, click the green + button (bottom center) and select Create a new adress book card.

1. A form will then open where you can enter the contact’s information: name, surname, email address, phone number, organization, alias, and other fields. You can also add notes or custom values.
   

Crear listas de contactos

1. In addition to individual contacts, you can create lists to group multiple contacts under a single name. These lists are useful for quickly sending emails to several recipients.
2. To create a list, click the green + button again and now select Create a new list.

1. A form will appear where you can assign a name, alias, description, and add the members you want to include in the list.

Categorizing contacts

1. SOGo also allows you to organize contacts by categories. To do so, click the gear icon (preferences) next to your account name.

1. Go to the Address Book section and click on Add contact category. You can create new labels such as “Client,” “Supplier,” “VIP,” etc., which will help you filter and classify your contacts within the address book.
