Accessing contacts groups...

Man, adjusting to Win Mail is difficult after years of Out Express. In OE6 I
was able to divide my contacts into sub-categories or groups, such as
"Co-workers", "Family", "Online friends", etc. for easy reference and
access. I finally figured out how to set up groups and add names from my
Contacts, by when I click the Contacts icon there's no listing of my groups.
When I create an email and click To: my Contacts show but not those in my
Groups.

How can I access the Groups after I've created them? This is so unintuitive.

Did you scroll down to see if the "Group" name appears in the listing of
contacts?

I use a "_" in front of all of my group names "_Test", this allows them to
appear at the top of the listing

Thanks, that's a nice tip. It's a shame such trickery is needed just to get
an "improved" product to function as well as it's predecessor.
