3.1. Where does Kab store the address book?

The default address book database is stored at `~/.kde/share/apps/kab/addressbook.kab`, any new databases that you have created will be stored wherever you put them.

3.2. What configuration files does Kab use?

The file `~/.kde/share/apps/kab/kab.config` holds your Kab "preferences" and the command strings for mail and talk.

`~/.kde/share/config/kabrc` holds general Kab appearance parameters and a list of the most recently visited address books.

Don't modify these files unless you really know what you are doing (and have made a back up).
