Hi Stephanie:

You can only send email from the KeyList file. I can tell you how to create a database, but you can't send email from it. Here is what you can do:

If you have used KeyList for creating and/or editing databases, you may want to convert these so that you can use them in KeyBase. The best way to do this is to create a new database in KeyBase and copy the data over.

1. Create a KeyBase database with exactly the same field names and similar field options set to the KeyList database. Do not give this the same name as your KeyList database. 2. In KeyList select your old database. To do this from the Address List menu, select "Setup Options" by pressing S, then "Select KeyList file" by pressing S again. 3. Choose your old KeyList database. You will be returned to the KeyList Options menu. Exit to the KeyList menu.
4.  At the KeyList menu select "Copy Addresses" by pressing C.
5. At the "Copy adddresses to a document or an Address List?" prompt, select Address List by pressing A. At the destination file name prompt, select your new KeyBase database and proceed as described in the copy addresses section of the address list chapter in the user guide.

The reason why you should ensure that both database names are different is to avoid accidental deletion of your data. Furthermore, if KeyBase and KeyList databases have the same name, the data in the KeyList database will be used by the KeyBase database.

If I can't use keybase, How can I create a second address book
and use that with keymail.
