Managing contacts

You can view information about each contact in their contact card. To view it, tap the contact's name in the address book or on the email reading page.

You can use the contact card to:

• View your message history.
• Search emails by attachments, folder, date, sender, recipient, content, or other filters.
• Create a new message quickly.
• Make an appointment in Yandex.Calendar.
• Start a chat in Yandex.Messenger.
• Call the sender on their specified phone number.

The address book is created automatically from the addresses you have ever sent emails to.

You can also add an address manually:

1. Click .

2. Fill out the fields in the contact editing window.

3. Tap Done to save changes.

If the contact name isn't specified clearly and the recipient replied to you, the address book will use the name they specified in their mail settings.

You can change or add contact information, such as their name, email address, phone number, date of birth, or a comment, using one of the following methods:

• In the address book interface. Select a contact from the list. In the upper-right corner, tap  → Edit contact, enter new contact information, and save changes.
• On the reading page in the contact card. Open the email and tap the sender's name. In the upper-right corner, tap  → Edit contact, enter new contact information, and save changes.

You can delete a contact from the address book using one of the following methods:

• In the address book interface. Select a contact from the list. In the upper-right corner, tap  → Delete contact.
• On the reading page in the contact card. Open the email and tap the sender's name. In the upper-right corner, tap  → Delete contact.

To find a contact in your address book quickly, use the integrated search that supports direct and reverse transliteration of first and last names. For example, to search for “Mad Hatter”, you can start typing his name using the Latin “M” or the Cyrillic “М”.

When composing a message, type the first letters of the contact's first name, last name, or email address in the To field to see a list of matching contacts in popup suggestions. The contacts you recently sent emails to are listed first.

You can synchronize contacts with your smartphone's address book. For more information, see Syncing contacts with a mobile device in Help for the Yandex.Mail web interface.
