Zimbra is NCF's webmail system.
Zimbra calendar and contacts follow the CalDAV and CardDAV standards.
For Thunderbird 23 and earlier, you need to install the "Zindus" contacts addon. Go to Tools -> Addons, and search for "Zindus".
Later versions of Thunderbird do not support Zindus, due to Zindus development being discontinued.
Once you have the Zindus component installed, the steps to sync your Zimbra contacts are as follows:
- Tools -> Zindus
- click on Add
- select Zimbra
- Server Url: https://mail.ncf.ca/
- Enter your email address and password, should be in the format ab123@ncf.ca and your password
- Select No for the Global Address List/GAL
- Click on Test Connection
If it worked, you should be set. Click 'Sync now' if you like, and then 'OK'.
