I accidentally deleted my entire contact lists on my address book a few days ago. To build back those several hundred contacts would be a very tedious task, not to mention that much valuable information on the contacts such as their birthday, address, phone numbers, etc. will be lost. Someone on the web suggested to right click the Address Book to access the "MoreFunctionsForAddressBook" feature and then select the Recovery option and that would resolve my problem. However, when right clicking my Address Book, only "Menu Bar", "Mail Toobar" and "Customize" was shown. Thus I am contacting you to get your guidance. Thanks!

More Functions is an add on. https://freeshell.de/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html If that does not work for you and you did not make a backup of your address book you need to start typing. Sorry. Make backups!

If the MFFAB add-on doesn't help, you could scan your mail folder(s) and collect email addresses, using the EmailAddressCrawler add-on by the same author.
