For those using OE, I'd say to back up the database periodically ... Just grab them and stick them on a zip disk or CD. They won't get corrupted there. If there is trouble later, you can restore what you have saved by replacing the database. I have never had this problem, maybe my address book is too pathetic and small - not even the devil in OE can be bothered. Or maybe regular maintenance like compacting and rebuilding message and databases has saved me so far? David Elmo -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
