	I have just checked this behaviour on newly created linux account with 
newly created addressbook folder on imap server (with user different from me). 
The problem repeated.
	Maybe, the problem is in localization? As I see, my folders im IMAP, that 
contain contact information are named by russian: Контакты, Календарь, 
Заметки...
	
	Best regards,
	Pavel.
