Unhappy Argh! Address book!

I feel I have to keep asking for this - just in case anyone at Fastmail has forgotten...

I really need to export my full address book.

I don't really care what format anymore - I just need offline access to all my fields. Plain text, XML, RSS, anything.

I suggest you use the upload/download link on the main address book screen. Then from that page choose one of the download options. I use Outlook which gives me a csv file.

This doesn't provide all the fields in the address book, especially if some contacts have got lots of phone numbers / email addresses. Also, no available format exports all fields stored by FM.

You are right, I did not realise that. I just did an experiment by adding multiple email details to a contact as well as a custom field, and yes it does not all download.

Apologies to MagicDavid, I just made an assumption - having never previously added items into a record beyond Fastmail's export funtionality.
