Mailtraq Professional users can have multiple Personal Address Books, as well as access to the Global Address Book (which holds contacts shared by all users) and access to the Local Directory.
Like calendars, each user has a primary address book (with the same name as their user account) and zero or more secondaries. Each address book can be shared with a selected group of people.
Additional Personal Address Books are created by the system administrator in the Console, at
File | New | Address Book
Sharing
Sharing can be set at the time of creation, or at a later date by right-clicking on the address book in the Console, opening the Properties, and selecting the sharing-tab.
The initial Personal Address Book for each user is named by the system - additional PABs can be named by the Admin, and this can be adjusted in the Properties.
TIP: Sharing PABs, combined with the Distribution Lists in Standard webmail, is a powerful way of managing address lists within organizations
