Seemed like OE98, used as a transition client, once picked up the
AddressBook from the existing Netscape profile. (It didn't import the
messages, but we've got that handled)

Netscape only exports adresses as ldif. Neither OE98 nor OL2001 have the
facility to import that type of file.

OL2001 imports from .csv, so we tested successfully once with OE98 importing
from Application (fails now) and exporting to csv. In Excel we swapped in
the header from OL2001 export onto the data from OE xport, as OL choked on
the field names from OE (What was Microsoft thinking, that this would never
be required???) and that worked.

Now we are dead-ended by this failure of OE98 to pick up AddressBook from
Netscape 4.78.

Thanks, Tony
