I recently switched from Mepis 6.0 to Mepis 7.0. When I first ran the Mepis 6.0 version of Kmail, the Address Book was immediately available. I have installed Mepis 7.0, and Kmail’s Address Book seems to be nonexistent. I click on the Tools menu’s AddressBook option, and nothing happens—no message, no Address Book, nothing. My first thought was that a needed package was not installed; so I ran apt-cache and printed out the dependencies—all 34 of them. All 34 are installed; so that does not seem to be the problem. I am running Kmail’s version 1.9.7 under KDE version 3.5.8. Any thoughts you may have as to the problem’s source will be appreciated.[font=Times New Roman][size=medium][/size][/font]
