Thank you. I just now saw your reply here. Yes, someone else also suggested this to me on the Ubuntu Support Forum. I tried it, and it worked-- to a certain extent. That is to say, it did bring in all the addresses. But the main problem is, that it did not retain the way in which the addresses were organized. There are a large number of addresses, but they are kept in six different mailing lists. And now all the addresses are just listed singly in the Evolution address book. Which is not much help to me, as I need the mailing lists. It would be a massive job to reorganize all those addresses by hand into their respective mailing lists. If it were to be like that, I could have just manually pasted each address into the Evolution address book myself and it would have taken just as look. There must be a way to do the import in such a way that the mailing lists are maintained. I did the import using csv. Do you think it would be any better if I did it via LDIF? Or will I still face the same problem? Thanks very much!
