...but if you have an address book with every email address even
encountered by your Mozilla, then all those addresses will be victims of
an email virus. Fewer emails in address books means less propogation of
email viruses... especially where the feature is equally useful to some
as it is irritating to others. Have it off by default protects the
ignorant from propogating email viruses to huge lists of strangers.
