# Add these lines to your .muttrc and uncomment it:
# --------------------------------<muttrc>------------------------------------
# macro index \ea "!abook-autoexport\n:source ~/.mutt/aliases\n" "Start abook"
# macro index A \
#   "|abook-autoexport --add-email-quiet\n:source ~/.mutt/aliases\n" \

# Optional: Import your existing mutt aliases into abook with

# Now restart mutt and open abook with <ESC>a. As soon as you exit from
