usually the addressbook is the file .addressbook in user's home directory
To use the converted address book, save it first to disk, then import it
to an address book.

To import to
-
Pegasus:
-
Open an addressbook.
Use addressbook => import
-
Netscape 4:
-
the name of converted address book must end with .ldif (eg
cbook.ldif).
-
Netscape 3:
-
the name of converted address book must end with .htm (eg
cbook.htm).
-
Pine:
-
append the converted file to your addressbook (.addressbook). Save .addressbook
first!
Beware: While saving the file, the browser tends to add
a suffix .htm in addition to the suffix you specify.
Sometimes it helps to enter the filename as
test.ldif.
in order to create the filename test.ldif (without the trailing
dot).
You may have to correct the filename after saving, using for instance
Windows Explorer.
Depending on your settings you may not see the additional ending in Windows
Explorer. Go on changing the filename anyhow!
