Hi :) Ok, so the helpful guide isn't yours but you are still active over there. So you still deserve the kudos.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Thunderbird - too many Address Books
Hi :) Yes, please ask on the Thunderbird forums http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=39 I found some excellent advice from one of the moderators there. Someone with a very familiar name! http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=39t=366405sid=f6c8f025bc5fff3f5f634d2a9e4b076f [tips hat to tanstaafi]. Dealing with just one project is tough enough, especially when it's a high traffic list such as this one.
