Thanks to everyone who replied (within minutes) as it turns out the
above was the sulution which I ended up using.
Import to Netscape under windoze & copy the relevant files to
~/.netscape
start netscape & bang there is is.. Perfect
as for the csv suggestion, this was let down by virtue of the fact that
the POS known as M$ internet mail only wants to export one entry at as
time & that only exports to that cursed vcf crap.
selecting the whole lot & copying it out into a plain text file results
in one big long badly formatted file with each of the entries having an
entry looking like
Firstname Surname
E-mail Address(es):
user at domain domain.tld
If I'd more time to hand I'd probably have fixed it up a little but the
NS-import worked well enough.
Thanks again to all who replied
Ray ...
