Go to his house and export his address book (LDIF format) to a floppy and
import on new computer. If no floppy drive, then use any portable medium.

PA BEAR - He lives 30 mlies from me, and doesn't know which program he
has on his old computer. I'm trying to get somebody over that way to
fire up the old computer, get the program and version name. But it
appears that while in that process, might as well copy down the
addresses from it's address book and use them to create a new address
book on Verizon web-mail. Also, somebody suggested that he should get
Thunderbird e-mail program downloaded, and his e-mail addresses could
be manually put in that also. When I get more information, I'll go
back into the Windows 7 Mail forum you mention. Thanks very much!

Was he using Outlook (OL) or Outlook Express (OE)?

I have a 91-year old senior citizen friend, whose kids just bought him
a new computer with Windows 7 - and no e-mail program. He is
attempting to use the Verizon web-mail, but he doesn't have the
addresses from his old computer Outlook (??) program. Is there some
way that his address book from the old computer be imported into his
new computer, and then exported to his Verizon web-mail address book?
