Yes, it can (at least the old non akonadi version could). There are several possibilities: - Use vCard folder for this - Use a real groupware server - Use addressbook in a mail folder (like kolab) I used all three of them. The address book mail folder is/was limited to kde pim. The vCard folder can not be accessed by mobile phones so I now use sogo as a groupware. Due to problems with kmail2 (deleted many mails) I currently use thunderbird. But there is a kdepim2 plugin for sogo as well.
