Is there a way to attach multiple addresses to an email and have the receiver download all of the addresses with one click? Or is it possible to send a group?

Don't really get what you mean. If you mean can the lookup function lookup multiple addresses at once, then nope it can't. Create a group and do a lookup for that.

If you don't mean this then just ignore me... I do.

My company has 30 blackberry users (BWC). I want everyone to have the same address book. Is there a way for them to download my whole address book?

I would guess the best way to do that would be to export your GAL to a .csv file and have them import it into their contacts in Outlook (if they are using outlook) and sync with that via DTM.

Probably not the best solution but the dirtiest...

If you are just concerned with email addresses (not phone #s, fax #s, street addresses, etc) you can just create an email and type in each of the email addresses on its own line.
When a user receives your email, they just need to scroll through, selecting each address and then hit the scroll wheel and select Add to Address Book, Click scroll wheel again, Select Save and then go on to the next email address.

I've done this for about 10 addresses before and it only took about a minute.
You do have the option to add phone #s, street addresses, etc but of course that will add to the total time it takes to enter all of the contact information.

I don't know if your 7520 will work the same but, I have a 7100t with 4.0.2.49 OS, as well as about 20 other 7100t users in my department. What I have done is send out an email and attach each address to it. It takes a while to do but it works. Just compose an email to all of your users, click the wheel, and select "attach address". Select the first address you want to attach, click the wheel, click "continue." That will attach the address to the email. Do this for each address you want to attach from your address book. The only glitch here might be if you have hundreds of contacts you'd like to send, it could take quite a while. For my users I sent about 50 addresses. When they receive the email have them go to the VERY BOTTOM of the email, click on the first address (it has a little book icon next to the contact name), click on "view attachment", then click, "update address" or "add to address book." If they already have some addresses in their contact list make sure that in the address book options that they have "allow duplicate names" set to "no." They will have to do this for each contact attachment so it takes a few minutes to do this end of it too. This system has worked quite well for me and saved my users a lot of time adding addresses. If anyone's information changes, i just change it in my address book then send a new address attachment out to everyone for that person. We are on a BES but I think it will work through BWC as well as I have sent from BWC to BWC in the past and it goes through ok. Let me know if it works for you.
