Dick, you need two address books in your SeaMonkey profile .....
*abook.html* contains your email addresses i.e. [email protected], and,
*places.sqlite* contains all your web site address, i.e. www.google.com,
and all the unexpired address's that you actually type into the address
bar of the browser.

Part of places.sqlite, I believe, is for your "Personal Address Book",
which can then be displayed as a separate bar on your browser screen.

places.sqlite has nothing to do with the address book.  it holds the
recently visited websites and the bookmarks.

The personal address book is usually called abook.mab but it can be
named differently when it one time was imported from another program.

The collected address book is called history.mab


O.K., Rob, so you don't think that a file which contains the *addresses*
of websites you visit is not an addressbook, that's your prerogative!!

When you open the "Address Book" in the Window menu you will get the
address book that I am talking about and that is the topic of the
original question in this thread.  It is stored in .mab files only.

Maybe you call the website URLs in the places.sqlite file an address
book as well, but it is not what the original author can't edit.

Having reviewed the thread, I see you are perfectly correct, Rob, the OP is talking about e-mail address books!!

I wonder where my confusion set in?? Did someone mention "Cache"?? The bugzilla report maybe....that's what I'll blame for my confusion!

Sorry for my noise!!

(but I still have my URL's in an addressbook!! even if it is only part of places.sqlite!!)

Happy New Year and may 2013 be better for you than 2012 was!!
