It is possible to export TB's AB as a text file. Now, all we need is a method to import or copy to MWP.

It is extremely annoying and tedious to copy in every address change or new address, and almost renders MWP useless. Hopefully something can be done about this in the near future.

To mark msgs from friends as legit I assume? Just edit the whitelist section of blacklist.txt to add the addresses.

Yes, I'm aware that addesses can be manually added and deleted individually. This is what is the effort and frequently forgotten. An addition requires it to be added to Tbird's book, then open the address book to that listing, copy the address, then open MWP friends list and paste it in. Also when travelling, MWP does not have a portable version so it's not on my thumb drive and cannot be updated. So every so often the need is to update MWP's friends list with the changed and additional addresses.

Also an address change is usually not seen in MWP as the info is inthe body of the msg and msgs are read in Thunderbird, not MWP.
