autofill addresses

Can't Windows Mail autofill e-mail addresses from Windows Contacts into the
"To: "line? Opening Windows Contacts searching for an address and moving an
address across seems awkward. It seems that you should start trying the
address and it should autofil.

Re: autofill addresses

Try the newer Windows Live Mail. Auto-complete works in it.

Re: autofill addresses

you need to type in the first 3 characters of the name for it to try and work.

and then only remembers the last 29 names you have used.

Re: autofill addresses

Will Windows Live Email auto-complete all of your addresses, or only the last
29 that you used? Phil

Re: autofill addresses

WLM auto-completes from all of the Contacts.
