    For (brand-)new Opolis Users, the Public Address Book will be empty (except for OSM Support), as no contacts with other Opolis Users have yet been established. But you can quickly and easily start filling your Public Address Book by either searching for already existing Opolis Users or by inviting individuals to Opolis who are not yet Opolis Users. A person can be found in the Public Address Book the moment this individual has successfully set up an Opolis Account, and hence become an Opolis User
    • To access the Public Address Book move the mouse to the toolbar and click Tools and then Public Address Book. Alternatively, when creating a new message you can click on the Address Book button in the New Message window upon which the Public Address Book window opens automatically
    • When opening the Public Address Book window, it will display such Opolis Users you either have previously actively added to your Public Address Book, or such Opolis Users with whom you have corresponded before, such as in the course of a response to one of their Opols E-Mails
    • You can also load the - so called - Dynamic Address Book by selecting on the toolbar Tools and then Load the Dynamic Address Book: The Dynamic Address Book will be automatically built upon a defined number of previously sent or received Opolis E-Mails from or to a defined number of Opolis Counterparts you communicate with. Furthermore you can define the maximum number of entries in your Dynamic Address Book. The parameters of the Dynamic Adress Book can be set by moving your mouse to the toolbar and Tools, then Options and Behaviour

    Search for Opolis Users

    • Opolis Users can easily been searched by entering at least 4 alpha-numerical signs in the Search box and pressing the Enter button on your keyboard
      • PLEASE NOTE: You will only receive up to 20 results per query. If the respective individual you are looking for is not displayed in the list, then your search criteria would need to be further refined
    • To receive more user-related information about any Opolis User click on the "i" icon (on the right side of the respective Opolis User name)
    • If you cannot find a name you are searching for in the Public Address Book, then it is quite likely that this individual is not yet an Opolis User. In that case you have the possibility to easily invite this individual to become a new Opolis User and communicate with you. More about that you can read further below

    Working with the Public Address Book

    • Clicking on the name of any Opolis User displayed in the Public Address Book will automatically open the New Message window with the selected Opolis User´s coordinates already entered as Addressee
    • If a New Message window has already been opened, then an additional Addressee can be addedd by simply double-clicking on the respective individual´s name in the Public Address Book
    • When - in a later stage - you have actually accumulated many Opolis Users in your Public Address Book, then the Dynamic Address Book may be very helpful: The Dynamic Address Book will be automatically built upon a defined number of previously sent or received Opolis E-Mails from or to a defined number of Opolis Counterparts you communicate with. Furthermore you can define the maximum number of entries in your Dynamic Address Book. In essence, you can quickly access such Opolis Users you are regularly and frequently in touch with

    Inviting individuals to Opolis to become new Opolis Users

    • You can easily invite individuals to Opolis who are not yet Opolis Users by moving your mouse to the toolbar, select Invitation and then Issue an Opolis Invitation
    • Filling in the addressee´s name and E-Mail address with the possibility of adding a small note will send an automatically generated E-Mail to the individual´s personal E-Mail address
    • The recipient will - along with this invitation mail - also receive first instructions upon how to best get in touch with Opolis and set up an Opolis E-Mail Account
