Hi Rio,

Don't know if there's a python module for this, but this link,

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms629361.aspx

defines the MS API for the address book, so you could roll your own.

If all you need is to read the data though, you could export the
address data into a CSV file (Python DOES have a module for this) or
VCard format.  IIRC, someone on this newsgroup was talking about VCard
just the other day.

HTH
