Thanks, Gina. I'll try that. Yes, the online help says that a specific local file name is required in the "folder" field if using a local file. I've also tried pasting the contents of the address book in an email message and using Alpine's 'take" command. However, I had to set it up as a distribution list to get all the addresses to be accepted. This doesn't seem right.

On a slightly unrelated note, I see "Applevis list' in the "to" field of this message. Is this my glitch or someone else's? :)

Hello,

Did a different user create the file? If so, you’ll need to use the chown 
command. If it was the same user, you can try the chmod command.

$ chmod u+r address.csv

It’s been years since I used alpine, but does alpine want the file with a 
specific filename?
