The "fix" SUX bigtime...  find 4.76 and edit the address book with that.  4.77
introduced a number of bugs in address book handling.

I barely use the NS address book; but I had major grief converting a Eudora one
to NS4.77 until out of desperation I tried NS4.76 on it...

It's not going to be a stroll in the park; but you'll stand a chance with 4.76
-- no chance with 4.77.
