You get this display when you use F2, but actually, the internal file
structure is "vertical", as you describe below:
>Can this Address book List be display vertically?
>for example
> joe@abc.org.com
> sue@xyz.com
My favorite MS-DOS utility for viewing files is Vern Buerg's LIST.COM; it's
widely available, in BBS's and FTP sites. Look for LIST9*.ZIP.
The addrbook file actually looks like this:
APUNTES_MAIL_TO_ALL=apuntes@eunet.es
APUNTES_REQUESTS=listserv@eunet.es
GCA_BC_EXEC=gpareja@vcn.bc.ca,\
xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx.ca,\
xxxx@xxxxxx.ca,\
xxxxx@xxxx.xxx.ca,\
xxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx.ca,\
YARN_LIST_(to_all)=yarn-list@lists.Colorado.EDU
(names changed to protect the innocent :-)
So, even those very long distribution lists are stored one address per line,
with a comma and a backslash as "joiners".
You can shell to DOS (use !) and type LIST at the prompt, or (easier) pipe
the message to LIST (press | and type LIST). The Addrbook file is usually in
the %HOME%\YARN directory.
Good viewing.
