| | address book in windows mail In my address book I have all 4 folder with e-mail address in them Family, Friends, work etc. However when I go to my Window Mail and click on “Create Mail” then click on “to” all of the e-mail address come up and not the 4 folder that I made. Have too many address to go through every time I want to send a message to a few people. How can I change it to the way it came up when I used Outlook Express |

| | Re: address book in windows mail Sorry, that is how it works in Windows Mail. You can upgrade to Windows Live Mail which allows you to access contact groups from the To field, and you can expand and delete individual recipients from a group. http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas -- Gary VanderMolen [MS MVP-WLM] "tmurf" <tmurf@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5D5DC4DE-7B9E-45F9-8B59-E42A92C65623@xxxxxx Quote: > In my address book I have all 4 folder with e-mail address in them Family, > Friends, work etc. However when I go to my Window Mail and click on “Create > Mail” then click on “to” all of the e-mail address come up and not the 4 > folder that I made.

| | Re: address book in windows mail Sorry, the current version of the WLM installer only runs on 32-bit systems.

| | Re: address book in windows mail Gary, I transferred XP Outlook Express Address Book from my old computer to Mail in my new one with no problem other than retyping the Book in the old computer. However, I listened to all these recommendations to switch to Live Mail in the new computer, which I did. Now I find that Live Mail does not use the ..WAB, Works Address Book as does Mail and have found no possible way to transfer it. So Live Mail is isolated from the Vista OS Address Book? Please tell me how to tranfer the new computer's Address Book which is now in Works and Mail to Live Mail.

| | Re: address book in windows mail What have you tried so far? In the latest WLM (build 1365), you can open Contacts and import from six different formats, including .WAB. -- Gary VanderMolen [MS-MVP WLM] "Bob Durbin" <BobDurbin@xxxxxx> wrote in message news  244FDA0-124B-492A-A6CC-85D6081B88F5@xxxxxxQuote: > Gary, > > I transferred XP Outlook Express Address Book from my old computer to Mail > in my new one with no problem other than retyping the Book in the old > computer. > However, I listened to all these recommendations to switch to Live Mail in > the new computer, which I did.
