After years of maintaining an address book, you don't need to worry about recreating it in Apps Mail. Importing your contacts isn't difficult – you can import your address books (from Outlook, Hotmail, Yahoo!, orkut, email software, etc.)
To import contacts to Gmail:
- Create a custom CSV file, or export the address book from your other webmail provider or email client as a CSV file. You'll learn more about CSV files and exporting from other address books in the next steps.
- Click Contacts (located below your list of views) on any Apps mail page.
- Click Import in the top portion of the Contact Manager.
- Click the Browse... or Choose File button and locate the CSV file you'd like to upload.
- Select the file and click the Import button.
Once you've successfully uploaded the document, Gmail will display the number of contacts imported.
A few things to keep in mind:
- If some entries aren't included in your Contacts list, Apps mail tells you why these entries were left out.
- If you receive error messages when attempting to import your contacts, you may need to edit your CSV file.
- You can only import up to 3000 contacts at a time. If you have more than 3000 contacts, you'll need to create multiple CSV files to upload.
