User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20130201065344 Steps to reproduce: I import a list of contacts with a ldif with adressbook import util. After i change the the adressbooks i can see the contacts of imported adressbook. I close and restart thunderbird. The profile of this account lay on an cifs drive. At the profile folder are all impab*.mab files and the prefs.js hold all adressbook entries. Actual results: After i restart thunderbird the adressbook disappear. Expected results: I open thunderbird -> adressbook and can open all adressbook with contacts With the same profile on local folder, i can import and use adressbook after restart of thunderbird.

(In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk, use Needinfo for questions) from comment #1) > fhanus, do you still see this problem when using a newer version? Also, are the *files* still there in the profile directory (on CIFS) and that it is thunderbird which could not read the file any more? Was the CIFS share near full status (I mean it may run out of space anytime while you were doing the task?) It sure sounds like one of those low-level I/O error not handled properly, but addressbook may have its own logically incorrect handling, etc.
