Can I use the JavaMail APIs to access my address book on my mail server?

The JavaMail API does not include any facilities for accessing an address book. There are no standards in this area; every mail server handles this differently. If you can figure out how your server does it, you might be able to find a Java API to access it. For example, if your server stores address books in LDAP, you could use the JNDI API to access it.
