Vista - Windows Mail addresses

After receiving a recent Windows update, I can no longer use the address book when creating Windows Mail. All of my addresses are now listed in "Contacts" and I have not found a way to apply them to outgoing email. When I hit the "To" a list of "recipients" comes up and it is totally unorganized.

They where supposed to be located in contacts from the beginning not the address book since it ended with XP over 7 years ago... When you start typing the email address it will automatically appear in the To: field otherwise just add the contact details and sort them....Its really not a problem since Vista just corrected the database plus its way better and more secure then the old address book database .
