Contacts
Copy as MarkdownThe people you write to, kept with your mailbox, how they are suggested as you type, and what the assistant can do with them.
Your contacts are kept with your mailbox, so they come with a team, as Mail does. They have no page of their own: you meet them where you write to people, and in Search.
Two address books
| Book | Who is in it |
|---|---|
| Contacts | The people you or the assistant saved. |
| Collected | The people you send mail to or invite to an event, added by themselves. |
Nobody is ever collected from mail you receive. A stranger who writes to you does not become a suggestion.
Suggestions as you type
When you type in a message's To, Cc or Bcc field, or an event's Guests, the people in both books are suggested by name and address. Choose one to add them.
What the assistant can do
With the Contacts connection on, the assistant can search and read your contacts, save a new one and change one. It asks you before it deletes a contact.
If you have two teams
Each address a team gives you has its own mailbox, and its own two books. What is saved or collected in one is not in the other. If you leave a team, its contacts stay with the team.
