>> Hi Horde-Team,

>>
>> So we now have three fields for email ( 'Email', 'Home Email',  
>> 'Work Email' ). But we have no idea how to configure the import to  
>> use all of the three fields. Currently just the 'EMAIL'-line in our  
>> vcard contacts are imported and the other email addresses are lost.  
>> Is it somehow possible?

>> An example vcard contact could look like this:
>>

The data is extracted from a PST, which was exported from an Microsoft  
Exchange-Server.

Formatting the vcard specifying a TYPE parameter for the several email  
addresses is solving the problem.

I think we can work on that. Thank you a lot again!
