Hello everybody,

I use roundcube for my emails but I think the adressbook is lacking a lot of interesting features.

1. Ability to store multiple email adresses, phones numbers, pictures and

other info about my contacts 2) Ability to share contacts (eg : my contacts could be seen by my wife, since we have some friends in common ;) 3) Ability to import/export from csv files or other adequate format 4) Ability to display pictures of my contacts when I receive mail from them (can anyone remember of the "picons" idea? see http://www.cs.indiana.edu/picons/ftp/faq.html#what)

So I propose the following:

1. see the code below to implement an extended version of the contacts.

At the moment it can :

• eidt, save and display multiple info about your contacts
• mailto links working with the various emails of the contact
• I chose not to store the image in the db itself but only a link to it,

since it was simpler; but it means cross-linking between your roudcube web site and the site hosting the image Todo :

• when auto-completing recipient address only the first email of the

contacts can be matched

• when adding a new contact, only the first email address is checked for

redundancy

2. Not implemented yet

To share contacts, I have included a "global" attribute in the contact profile. When set to True this will make the contact visible to everybody, but editable only by the user who created it. There will be a config attribute to disable this behaviour.

3. Not implemented yet, but should'nt be hard

4. I really like this idea (try gmail to see how it could work). I think I

will add :

• mouse-over info box that displays the contact profile when the mouse is

over a mail

• when displaying a message, show at the top the picture and some info from

the addressbook

Please tell me if you think this can be included in roundcube 'official' version, and in that case I will send you the future updates.

If you find bugs, please send them to me. It seems to work ok for me. If you prefer to work with cvs, I can do so, but on the web site it is said to propose code by mail.

Bye Paul

Code to implement feature 1)

A/ DB modification (I use mysql, so this is the code to update the db scheme).

ALTER TABLE contacts ADD email2 VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD email3 VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD email4 VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD im VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD homephone VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD mobilephone VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD workphone VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD sip VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD webpage VARCHAR( 256 ) NOT NULL , ADD birthdate DATE NOT NULL , ADD pgppublickey TEXT NOT NULL , ADD homeaddress TEXT NOT NULL , ADD workaddress TEXT NOT NULL , ADD company VARCHAR( 128 ) NOT NULL , ADD comments TEXT NOT NULL , ADD picture VARCHAR( 256 ) NOT NULL , ADD globalcontact BOOL NOT NULL ;
