"reducing an essential tool as a contact manager down to adding, search and editing capabilities with absolutely no options for view customization, filtering, categorization etc."
Is this actually true? I'm not familiar with Outlook or Entourage but the things you want to do seem entirely possible in Mail:
You filter with the search box.
You categorize with groups
You can add any custom fields to contacts
You can add general purpose notes to contacts
- pyre 17y agoThe author probably didn't realize that lists existed because (iirc) by default AddressBook doesn't show your the 'tiered' view with the different groups. I think that by default it shows you a single AddressBook entry at a time (with the 'next/prev' arrows to navigate through search results).
