Well you could use the members page or use thishttp://www.codeblog.ch/2009/06/concrete5-staff-table/...

is this block searchable?

I'd assume do but don't know. Contact Remo for more info on it. The sample content for 5.4.0.5 has a built in feature like this. Don't know if 5.4.1 does though

By "list of contacts," do you mean a list of registered users? I'll be releasing a block in the coming weeks (would be sooner,but I've got other logs on the fire) that will display a pageable list of users. While it won't be searchable, you will be able to specify the sort order as well as restrict the list of users to any combination of groups.

EDIT: To clarify, you will be able to specify the sort order and groups when you create/configure the block. The site visitor will not be able to do so.

I've got tony trupp's mailing block for email blasts. I've asked if this can be broader (a la apple address book) so it's like a simple contact list (searchable) that also sends out emails to my list. Not sure why this doesn't exist, seems simple enough - moved here from an expensive web software solution - love concrete for my art site, just trying to sort out contacts/emailings so I don't have to go outside of concrete for that... happy to commission someone to help or pool resources - tony says he doesn't have much time to tweak mailing block - respectfullyhttp://www.sandygarnettstudio.com

the contact directory add-on lets you list people and provide searching, but there's no signup or mass emailing stuff.

I am think of a list none registrated users.
You can say Address List.

It should be something simple, editable and searchable.

Hi, omarservice.

You could use the Easy Tables add-on:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/easy-tables/...

You can test the search feature in the basic example here:http://binaryblocks.net/demos/easy-tables/easy-tables-basic-example...

Kind regards.
