another probably silly question

[dep <dep linuxandmain com>]

of the multitude of gnome-based mail clients, does anyone here know if 
there's one that stores its addressbook in a flat format, as in:
name <name address ext>
newname <name address net>

and so on? kde has deprecated the kmail addressbook, and i'm looking 
for alternatives to the huge, all-encompassing, 
everything-but-blood-type pim sort of address handling.

tia.
