Actually one correction. I get the above dialog when selecting "File -> New
Database" and in the database wizard select "Connect to
existing database":"Mozilla address book".
When going through "File->Wizards->Address data source", I get a slightly
different selection of address book sources, among them
"Mozilla/Netscape" and "Thunderbird".
When selecting Mozilla/Netscape, I get the same error as above ("no
Mozilla/Seamonkey address book exists"). when I select Thunderbird, I
get to see my Thunderbird address books. So that would work in
principle.
But there are various things and inconsistencies: What is a
Mozilla/Netscape address book? Browser bookmarks? And how does a
"Mozilla" address book differ from a "Thunderbird" address book?
And why did I see "Mozilla address book" but not "Thunderbird" address
book in the new database wizard?
Overall the whole thing is very puzzling and unintuitive.
Sebastian
