Address book killed mailing lists?

So I finally convinced my mother to go to OS X. She the only problem she found was that mail didn't import her mailing lists from Outlook Express. That was a big problem, since she has about 10 lists with 250+ people on them. We ended up printing out the old OE lists, and just reentering them. When I installed 10.2 on her ibook, her lists were gone! All of her addresses were automatically imported, but not lists. Is there any fix for this? She now thinks that every time an update comes along, it will force her to reenter her lists.

    Sorry, here is the question: Since Address book didn't import her lists, is there a way to import them?



    All of her addresses were imported, just not in lists.

    I don't think that there's a way to import them.



    open AdressBook, and sort the people into Groups. (you can drag and drop people into lists)

    then, in mail.app just type in the name of the Group, and voilÃ*.
