Hello KT
I thought the update dated April 26 for KB911567 covered this problem with
the address book.
Or was that to correct another problem caused by the one dated
11 April.

Hi Art,

This problem may be caused by security update 911567. This can be checked
by
uninstalling the update.

incorrectly
configured. Please reinstall" 2nd error message reads "There was an error
opening this message. An error has occurred" (that happens if you try to
