While I have CManager library, etc that came with the MDII standalone
install, I never installed CManager itself, so I wonder how it
configures its address book. As I said, I had to import my YAM mailing
list before 1.4 would import the "old list," and I wonder if these are
related. Maybe if you rename CManager and try again it will work, or
maybe your CManager install is corrupted and a reinstall there might
help. Of course if you are using the NC version, you can't rename
CManager, or nothing will work. BTW, I've heard they fixed the
standalone version so the NC keys work with it, so if you are using the
NC version, you might just want to consider using the standalone
version. And those are my last thoughts on it. Good luck.
