While using Windows Mail if we click on Create New Email/Forward Email/Reply All takes a lot of time to 'Open', when option is ticked to automatically complete email addresses, BUT when the option is unticked to automatically complete email addresses, the email opens immediately however then it takes a lot of time to complete the send process, while searching for the email id from the address book

I cannot find this fix:

So far the recommended fixes have helped in speeding up the program However, it still leaves much to be desired. with Outlook Express none of these fixes were necessary. The quantity of email addresses or messages were not a factor. It was a wonderful program that has been virtually destroyed. For instance, selecting a group of addresses to send emails puts them in the TO: window when I want to have them in the BCC: window. I have to cut and paste to get them into BCC. I am only interested in email addresses not in all the other Contact info. and I believe that is the case for most users.

Windows Live Mail is even worse because you cannot easily group names. In my Real Estate business I need to group names of agents, clients, prospects etc. to send specific messages to.

I would like to use Thunderbird but I have no way of transferring the many folders of segregated messages in the same format to it. I am also not certain if the segregation of email addresses into groups can be transferred in the same format. Vista has created hugh problems for me but I am now stuck with it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks much for your help so far, if it wasn't for people like yourself I don't where users like me would turn.
