| | Organizing email address in Vista Windows Mail I'm new to Vista so, I probably missed a few hundred posts about this MS screw up. I just installed Vista Home Premium on a new build. Actually everything went better than most I have done. That is till I downloaded my address book from XP. They went in flawlessly, opened up to see if I needed to organize the several files I have. Family-Personal-Work-Etc.. Well now-------some MS geek decided it would be funny to put them all into one big alphabetical unorganized LONG list. Started goggling MS blogs, "can't be done" was the only answer that I could find. This is hard to believe. Surely they have fixed it or someone has found a work around by now. Can anyone help???? Yes, I organized Contacts, but as we know it didn't transfer to address book, what am I saying there is now address book, only CONTACTS and an unorganized list in Windows Mail. |

You can use the Office Outlook 2003 or newer though with Vista. Shawn |
