Then show the contents of the original .abook file

>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Real Name','email.name@company','');
>>
>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Real Name','email.name@company','');
>>
>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Hoksbergen','edsylvia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx','');
>>
>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Nancy King','njking@xxxxxxxxxxx','');
>>
>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Krish & Bob
>> Fennessy','nana1950@xxxxxxxxxxx','');
>>
>> INSERT INTO sqmail.address (owner,nickname,firstname,lastname,email,label)
>> VALUES ('jcmerchant','','','Rita Glasscock','plcrc@xxxxxxx','');
