Steve, being freaky
Steve, being freaky

Depressed because ThunderBird no longer lets you send an e-mail to "username", and makes you put "username@yourdomain.com"? Got too many address book entries to clean manually? Well, Thank Steve!

  1. Download ThankSteve
  2. Install ThankSteve
  3. Export your ThunderBird address book as an LDIF file
  4. Run ThankSteve
  5. Salt domain name to taste
  6. Drag the export file (from step 3) onto Steve
  7. Import the LDIF file into the ThunderBird address book.
  8. Thank Steve!

If you want to clean it up a bit, after the import:

  1. Select all entries in your personal address book (Ctrl-A) and delete them
  2. Select everything in the import and drag them up into the personal address book
  3. Delete the imported address book.

NOTE: I know the export/import sucks... If you've ever looked at the address book file for ThunderBird, you'll understand. *shudder*

NOTE2: The pic in ThankSteve is Steve's buddy icon. I'm not trying to make him look like a cyclops, he does it himself.
