Since Thunderbird 102, the CardDAV protocol is natively supported.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable it:
|
||||
|
||||
* On the address book view, click the down arrow near "**New Address Book**" and choose "**Add CardDAV Address Book**".
|
||||
* In the next window, type your **user name** and **URL of your server**.
|
||||
* The next window will ask for your username and password for this account.
|
||||
* The previous window will be refreshed and ask you which address books you wish to sync.
|
||||
* Choose and then click **Continue**.
|
||||
#. On the address book view, click the down arrow near "**New Address Book**" and choose "**Add CardDAV Address Book**".
|
||||
#. In the next window, type your **user name** and **URL of your server**.
|
||||
#. The next window will ask for your username and password for this account.
|
||||
#. The previous window will be refreshed and ask you which address books you wish to sync.
|
||||
#. Choose and then click **Continue**.
|
||||
|
||||
If you later want to add a new address book, you can redo all of those steps and only the books not already synchronized will be suggested.

|
||||
