How can I send someone a copy of one of my address lists?
I need to send a copy of one of my e-mail lists to a friend. How can I select all the names and e-mail addresses on that list and send this information?

Export it. Check with your friend what s/he can use. CSV is most likely to be useful. If they also use Thunderbird, LDIF works very well.
- Open your Address Book
- Select the required address book.
- Go to Tools|Export on the menu
- Enter the name and location of the file to be created. I suggest you create it on your desktop.
- Select the file type, probably CSV (Thunderbird refers to CSV as "Comma separated".)
The file will contain all of your address book data; street addresses, phone numbers etc. If there's anything you want to exclude, I think you'll need to use the CSV format, then open the CSV file in a spreadsheet (Excel, Libre Office Calc, etc) and delete the unwanted columns.
Now attach the exported file to an email message and send it.
