How to read from Contacts.app in mutt OS X

0

I'm trying to setup mutt to autocomplete emails from my address book. I've tried using contacts and the new contacts to no avail. Has anybody successfully done so?

My guess is that this might be related to the somewhat recent privacy changes to Contacts.app

Edit: I'm on Yosemite.

For this kind of question, it can be helpful to specify which version of OS X you care about. Especially if the OS X Address Book / Contacts database or API may have changed recently. – Spiff – 2015-03-30T18:25:57.440

Completely forgot about that. I'm on Yosemite, will update the question accordingly. – Gus – 2015-03-30T21:01:00.417

I've run into the same and I'm getting 4/14/15 1:16:51.735 PM contacts[37094]: __TCCAccessRequest_block_invoke48: Connection invalid in the system log. I've been trying to find a way to add the contacts binary to the privacy contacts allow section of the preferences. I believe this is where it issue is. but I'm unable to find a method yet. – None – 2015-04-15T00:51:01.427

Does http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20041024163030501 not work?

See this:

And this helpful bit for more addressing goodness:

These are both working for me on Yosemite and homebrew mutt.

2Please expand your answer with some explanation, instead of posting just the links. – kenorb – 2015-06-03T18:56:27.763
