HELP! Lost Address Books!

HELP! Lost Address Books!
Wed, 16 May 2007 17:35:34 -040
I had a computer crash last weekend, and am just now getting everything 
back up and running. I had a backup copy of  everything, and after 
reinstalling Netscape 7.2, including email, 2 of my 5 address books 
didn't come back into my email, but they are sitting in the *.slt 
directory. :-(

I tried to import them, but that would only work if they were from an 
older version, not from the current version. Does anyone know how to get 
Netscape to recognize them??

BTW, I am on WinXP.

Hi Peter, and thanks for your input. Yes, I know that the *.mab's are 
the address books, as that's how I know that they are in my directory. 
However, they are not in my Netscape address book. I have 5 address 
books, and only 3 are showing up when I look into my address book 
window. Any ideas as to how to get them to show up in my Netscape 
address book window????
