Sending a business card in every new message

vCard, also known as an electronic business card in Outlook, contains contact information similar to paper business cards. You can exchange electronic business cards in vCard format via MMS or instant messaging and send it as an email attachment. If you contact a lot of new people and want them to have your or another person's contact information, you can send your vCard in every email. This lets recipients enter the information in their address book quickly and without errors by importing your electronic business card from the attachment.
