Hi!

It's been a lot of time that I wanted to manage all my ios contacts and use mail app with my gmail account.
My main problem is that I send a lot of email each day to company's that I don't have them on my contacts list because I don't have their phone (just use email).
So the question is simple, how do you organize your contacts? do you use family & friends with companys all together?
I think that I could add companys as contacts just filling the email and the name.
Now I'm using gmail for the email and contacts for the phone, but I want to start using mail app with ios contacts, not gmail contacts.
 
I have multiple accounts with GMail. On two of the accounts I have calendar and contact syncing turned on. That way my personal and professional contacts and calendars sync with separate accounts.

Then I use Thunderbird with the Lightning, Google Contacts and Google Calendar add-ons to sync with the computers.

The business gmail accounts use Google Apps so that I can use my domain. The personal is a regular Gmail account.
