Ok, I have some ideas on getting the address book moved over now too. Sorry I had to break email and address book steps apart but I had to do some research first as I have never used kmail :)
It seems to me that kmail (I'm doing research using v1.5 running on KDE 1.3rc5 if that makes a difference) can import Microsoft .pab (personal address book) files. I can't remember if outlook can export your address book into a file of that format but I think it should be able too. Try that and see if outlook can do that and if it does then kmail should be able to import it. If not outlook may also be able to export the address book in LDAP format (*.ldif). Kmail can also import those. Let me know if any of those work for you, if not I'll see if I can find some other utils to do it. I know of one other utility that can convert address books to various formats but it's name evades me at the moment :( Cheers -- Personal: Trevor Lauder Web: http://www.thelauders.net E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: Trevor Lauder Technical Services Specialist Wireless Networks Inc.
