Hello list,
     
    Thunderbird comes with two predefined address
      books:
      Personal & Collected. These books are in the list found when
      you go to the
      address book with ctrl+alt+b.
     
    If you import, then another book is added to
      the list. 
      The
      only import I have done is with my old Outlook Express address in
      the .ldif
      format.
     
    So now my address books list contains three
      books.
     
    When replying or manually adding an address to
      one of your
      address books go to:
      EDIT |
      Preferences |
      Composition | Addressing
     
    Tab to and check:
      Automatically
      add outgoing
      Email addresses to
     
    Tab and highlight an address book: Personal,
      imported,
      Collected
     
    I believe that the TB default was Collected.
      Now I have the
      Personal as my default. 
    So I now have addresses in three books.
     
    My question is: 
    is there a way to combine all of them into one
      book.
     
    Peter

    Which
      likely explains why I never thought it was working.  If sender is
      added, with no feedback, you can go into address book and fill the
      fields as you like.  I'll try this for yours, see which address
      book it ends up in.
      
      
      
      
      Cheers,

      Hello,
        
        
        I did it. After tabbing to the
        
        add to address book button
        
        I used the numpad slash to left click on it. Nothing is said but
        the
        
        sender is added to the address book.

        Can you get flat review to focus on it?
          Maybe it's already under the
          
          mouse pointer, in which case, can you click on it either with
          review
          
          keystroke or actual mouse/track pad? Not sure what's the deal
          with
          
          this button.

          Hello list, how do I activate the 'add
            to address book' button?
            
            
            When I want to add a new address (without replying), I tab a
            few times
            
            and Orca announces:
            
            add to address book button
            
            
            Hitting the space bar or pressing ENTER does nothing. How do
            I activate
            
            this button?
            
            
            Thanks,
