Using vCards

You can use Mail to exchange electronic business cards, called vCards, with your contacts. A vCard contains contact information such as an address, phone number, or email address.

To add or send a vCard:

To add a vCard that someone sends you to your address book, double-click the vCard icon in the message.

Address Book opens and displays the new card.

To send your own vCard, or any card from your address book, create a new message. Then open Address Book, locate the card you want to send, and then drag the card from the Name column to the body of the message.

If you find that you often send your vCard, create a signature to add to your messages and drag your vCard into the signature.
