When I click on Addresses in OE6,
I get
"Unable to open the address book"
"The address book may not be installed properly"

Another symptom is that I can receive messages, but
cannot create messages. The first message that came
up initially was to with the address book

So any suggestions will be greatly appreciated on
How to reload the address book or even
OE6 without using the ie6 setup, which
does not fix the problem
