Hello,

I want to create a connection to my Thunderbird addressbook under Linux
(Debian)

I choose "File -> New -> Database -> Choose a connection to an existing
database -> Thunderbird Addressbook"

Then I can choose "Browse" and see 2 addressbooks.


My problem now is: I want to know where (in which directory) it browse.


My suggestion is to choose the right path to the dirctory myself.
Hi Mechtilde

Do you mean how to find the directory used for different profiles?

Isn't that stored in the profiles.ini file found in the directory .mozilla-thunderbird

Under Ubuntu for instance this is located at /home/<user name>/.mozilla-thunderbird

In the profiles.ini file on my machine for instance is:

[Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=2njw8wag.default

so the address to where I can find the address book file is:

/home/<user name>/.mozilla-thunderbird/2njw8wag.default/abook.mab

Not sure that is what you are looking for or not.
