Description

OOo support access Mozilla address books as databases. But currently
it does not support Thunderbird. It does not support switch Mozilla
profiles at runtime.
With changes in CWS mozab05, we now add these features to OOo.
1. Thunderbird address book support.
Now you can access Thunderbird address books as you can do on
Mozilla address books.
2. Add multiple profiles support to both Mozilla and Thunderbird.
With this features, when you create a database to access
Mozilla/Thunderbird address books, we provider an ui to let you choose
which profiles you want to use.
3. Access more the one profiles at the same time.
Not like the old profile switch solution, you can access different
profiles side by side now. Even when you have different directories
in different profiles which have the same name, you can access them
at the same time and will get the different content as you wish too.

That's all.
Thanks
