Mailbird offers a fantastic Contacts App where you can manage your list of contacts easily and conveniently. One action which many customers require as part of our Contacts App, is the ability to Merge Contacts. In Mailbird, it's possible to merge multiple contacts, so you're never restricted to just merging two contacts at a time.
Merging contacts will result in the details of one contact becoming merged with another one, in order to combine them into a single contact.
Please note that once two contacts have been merged, this cannot be undone - it is therefore important that you act carefully and consider whether it is appropriate to merge two contacts.
Another thing to keep in mind is that when you merge a contact from two different email accounts, you will also automatically link them. This is also the case if you are merging contacts in an Outlook email account.
There are two ways in which you can merge a contact:
- The first way involves first selecting multiple contacts which you would like to merge into a single one by holding down CTRL on your keyboard as you click on each of the contacts which you would like to merge in order to select them all.
- Once you have selected all the contacts which you would like to merge, simply right-click on any of the selected contacts and then click on Merge contacts from the menu which will have appeared.
- The second way to merge contacts is by clicking on the triangle icon in the top righthand corner of Mailbird, and then selecting Merge contact (as shown below) after you have selected a single contact.
