[Adium-devl] Mail / Addressbook integration (#122)

[David Smith]

	Hi Joe

	This is pretty cool, but I should note that the info on the ticket  
is out of date; a later radar on the same issue got a much more  
promising response, so there's still hope for doing this  
officially :) No ETA and not much info though.
