Problems with composing mail and using the contacts

Hi,

When I want to compose new mail and go to start typing in the name of the
"to" person, nothing comes up from the contacts to fill them in. I have
entered all my contacts - so why are the two connecting.

Very frustrating!!!!

Yes, but this doesn't work. Try typing the first 3 letters then bash ctrl k.
then click on the one you want. Seems dodgy at first but it's better when
you get used to it. ctrl k that's the way.

Click the To: in front of the field and select the contact you want to send
to.
