Look for already existent contact when adding new #14

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

When adding a new contact by clicking its email address, the add-on could
check the address book to see if isn't there any contact with the same
email registered.

If yes, the add-on could ask the user if he really wants to add another
contact or cancel the operation.

I'm using version 0.6 on Thunderbird 2.0.0.14.

Good idea. Maybe won't be before long.

Would be great, but can this be achieved by an extension at all?

We would like to DONATE $200 in order to support for each ADD ON IMPROVEMENTS

$200 - 1- If contacts (identical EMAILS not only DOMAIN but identical 
emails)are completely identical, just show/delete them 

$200 - 2- Look for already existent contact when adding new (EMAIL check ALL 
address books/only email would be enough) 

$200 - 3- Add-On stops after deleting 4 entries (>1000 contacts). We have 
12,773 emails so its crucial.

$200 - 4- When showing the RESULTS - emails should be EDIT/SAVE!
