Sync Thunderbird and Address Book using Plaxo
Authored by: tychay on Mar 16, '06 05:55:20PM

(I work at Plaxo, but not on the Mac client)

Actually the group information is available through Plaxo. Address Book Groups are synced in the Outlook field known as "Categories:" which is available online in the "Other Information" tab.

Because "Smart Groups" are saved searches, that information is not synced. Also some fields don't map correctly to fields in Outlook (Let's face it, Outlook has an archaic data model that's really bad), which means that they aren't fully supported yet in Plaxo. Hopefully in the near future we can add support for the more robust fields in Address Book and have true 100% synchronization.

I hope that this is a good start.
