| | Cannot set up contact groups(mailing lists) All the help screens tell me to click on the 'Contacts" icon on the toolbar and this will show an option "New Contact Group" to set up contact groups for mail. Well it does not! I am a very long time computer user with years of experience and never had this problem with Outlook Xpress. I know how to set up groups but cannot find the path to it. I have Vista Ultimate. Any clues please? -- DC3 Captain,Fast Jet jockey |

After opening 'customise this folder' my options are "what kiknd of foldeer....." and "Use this folder type .... or folder pictures. Nothing gives me new contact group. I liked Outlook Express so much better.
