[PLUG] Contact Manager

[David Fetter]

I use evolution at work for similar reasons.  It imports the csv, though
not every aspect, but it's good enough.  Evolution was initially created
to be a mimic of outlook and if I'm not mistaken it was one of the
first, if not the first, to be able to connect directly to an exchange
server with relatively full functionality.  I could be wrong about that
though since I've never had to connect to an exchange server.  (I know,
fortunate, huh?)  ;-)
