To search for a contact:

  1. Click the address book in which you want to search.

    A column showing all the contacts in that address book appears.

    You can search a contact based on the following criteria:


    Note - By default, the search is performed on the display name or email address.


  2. Enter the string that you think would be the best way to find your contact in the text area provided and press enter.

    All the contacts that match the search criteria appear.
