WebMail Pro can import contacts from comma-separated CSV files as well as from standard contact lists in vCard format (VCF files).
VCF format is preferred as it's standardized (while CSV is not). In case if you cannot use VCF, you'll need to make sure the CSV you'll use for importing has the columns with certain names and values (see CSV File Fields for more info).
To import contacts using vCard format file to BEZA WebMail Pro:
-
Login to your BEZA WebMail Pro account.
-
Once you have successfully logged in, at the top, click on Contacts:
-
On the Contacts page, drag-and-drop your VCF (or CSV file) of contacts:
-
That's it, you should now see the imported contacts on the left and clicking on a name should reveal the imported contact information on the right side:
To successfully import a CSV file, you must ensure the file has the correct fields:
