My email address book has disappeared

That's frustrating! Don't worry, I'm here to help you try to recover your email address book. Here are some steps to follow:

Check your email provider's settings

  1. Log in to your email account on the web (not through a mobile app).
  2. Check your email provider's settings or preferences to see if your address book is still there. For example:
    • Gmail: Go to Settings > General > Contacts.
    • Outlook: Go to Settings > View all Outlook settings > Mail > Contacts.
    • Yahoo: Go to Settings > Contacts.
  3. If you find your address book, you can export it to a CSV file or vCard file, which you can then import into another email client or address book.

Check your email client's settings

  1. If you're using a desktop email client like Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or Apple Mail, check its settings to see if your address book is still there.
  2. Look for a "Contacts" or "Address Book" section in the client's settings.
  3. If you find your address book, you can export it to a CSV file or vCard file.

Try recovering your address book from a backup

  1. If you have a backup of your email account or email client, try restoring it to see if your address book is included.
  2. Check your email provider's settings to see if they offer automatic backups or a "Restore" feature.

Re-create your address book

  1. If you can't find your address book, you can start re-creating it by adding contacts one by one.
  2. You can also try searching for contacts in your email account's search bar to see if any contacts are still available.

Contact your email provider's support

  1. If none of the above steps work, you can contact your email provider's support team for assistance.
  2. They may be able to help you recover your address book or provide additional guidance.

I hope these steps help you recover your email address book!
