   RayXXX to All   
   Retrieving old addresses

   From: raykosXXX@optonline.net   
      
   I had to reinstall N7.2. It happens that there are two   
   different paths to the old and new .slt folders, so both versions are   
   still on my hard drive.   
      
   In the old installation, I had five address books: Personal, Collected,   
   and three more with custom names. I've copied the following files from   
   the original .slt folder into the new .slt folder:   
      
   abook.mab   
   book-1.mab   
   history.dat   
   history.mab   
   impab.mab   
   impab-1.mab   
   impab-2.mab   
      
   Then I closed the mail program, reopened it, but didn't find the old   
   addresses.   
      
   What have I missed?   
      
   (Yes, I should have exported the old ones as LDIF files, but too late now.)   
      
   Thanks,
