Sharing Addressbook

My wife and I are both using kmail in our respective accounts on our home network.

We'd like to be able to share 1 addressbook between us. Is there a preferred
way to accomplish this with KDE3.1.2?

I thought of putting std.vcf in a global, group-writable location and then
creating symlinks in our respective ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc dirs that
point to the global std.vcf.

Other better ideas on how to do this?

Thanks for any help,
allen

Hi,
with KDE you can handle multiple addressbooks (K-Menue -> Control Center -> Components -> Addressbook). Just create a new file ressource and share it over your network.
