Default Importing address books

I would like to import an address book from Eudora on another computer into
my Outlook Express mail program on my desktop. I already have some addresses
in it so I'd like to make a subdirectory in OE that contains all the Eudora
addresses and preserves the file hierarchy of my Eudora Address Book. How can
I do this?

Default Importing address books

Importing doesn't preserve groups or folders for addresses.

You would be best to create a new empty address book for OE (WAB).
Import to that. Depending on the Eudora version you may be able to
directly import. Or else in Eudora, Export to a CSV (Comma Separated
Values) text file and import that.

Then you copy/paste from the new WAB to your existing one.

See:
The Windows Address Book (WAB)
