Default Lost Contact List

In OE6 the Shared Contact list does not show in one of the identities, it has
a message 'no contact list to display'. there is no problem with the other
identities.

This problem ocurred before I was forced to re-install windows but still
exists after a fresh installation.

How can I get this back?

Default Lost Contact List

In the problem identity, open the address book, then select Help, About
Address Book and see what it says is the file name for the address book.
Then do the same in the identities that work.

All identities within the same Windows logon should have the same file
name there. That is how they share the "shared contacts".

Identities within different Windows logons use their own address book.
