Thank you, it worked perfectly.

> Hi Ruth,

>    It's very simple; email it to yourself.  After logging into PINE:
>
>    1. Use 'c' to compose a new email to your own email address.
>
>    2. Press ^r (control-r) to read the addressbook into the body of  
> your email.  When it asks for a filename, use:
>
>                              ~/.addressbook
>
>      (that's a tilde, forward slash, a dot and the word 'addressbook')
>
>    3. Send it.  When it arrives as an email in your account, just  
> save it as you would any other other email, export it to a file or  
> print it as you normally would any email.
>
> Hope this helps,
>
>    FYI: quite a few CCN users still prefer PINE, which has now  
> progressed to version 1.0 called Alpine, although we still use  
> version 4.64 of PINE.
