Mozilla Thunderbird...

How can I import a saved address book into Mozilla Thunderbird? I've tried inporting an "Outlook Express" addressbook but its empty. Where does Tunderbird look for the address book?

I have been just importing the stuff from outlook, & OExpress, so import the .wab file from your windows address book into either outlook or oe, and then import it to T-bird from there

Thanks surlyjoe. I figured that out late last night. I had the Address book saved on another drive and hadn't even used OE since I re-installed. I would have thought that Thunderbird should have an option to browse to a saved address book location like OE does.
Thanks though.

The other option is to export your address book to a .csv file. This is a very simple file format which is really just a text file with commas in between each value.
