If you can see the vcards in .local/share/contacts it should just be a matter of setting that this is what you want to use as your default. > BTW, in the KDE addressbook, there is no category field, which I relied to > filter who I wanted to mail to.

I have 4.4.92, which is a beta for 4.5, and categories are again in the edit-contact display. I believe they will be re-named to tags, but I can see the categories that were already set, and I can define new tags/categories. However, I don't seem to be able to do much with them, at the moment, which is odd because I thought that in a recent version I could filter by them. Anyway, I suspect that we will not get the full functionality of this until the new KMail comes out, around September if all goes to plan.
