[CLUE-Tech] Import Netscape addresses into Evolution 1.2.1

[Kevin Cullis]

Hi Ed,

I have copied my Netscape/nsmail folders to my second HD and can not
open my Netscape address book, that's why I've asked the question like I
did.  I just need to know which file to copy from the second HD to my
main/first one.  That's what I did with my nsmail file and everything
worked just fine.

As far as the other comments, I take it as an opportunity to learn, but
have my personal preferences as well as customers that I deal with that
I can help.  Evo is getting better each new upgrade and it's basic
functinoality is that of Act!, which is a Winders Contact management
program.
