I have created few folders (eg. "Friends" folder and "Suppliers" folder)
in Windows Contacts and place all the contacts into respective folders.

However, when I click "Create Mail" and "Recipient", I can't see the
"Friends" folder and "Suppliers" folder created earlier, instead all the
contacts in both folders shown together in one list. This is not the case
when I was using Outlook Express or Outlook 2003.

Can someone help me on this, please do not ask me to go to Windows Contacts
and create an e-mail from there, this is not what I want.

Thanks in advance.

I already asked that question and was told that is simply the way it is, at
least for now. Windows Mail doesn't recognize folders when using the To,
CC, and BCC addressee fields.

Cheers, Dave

You are about the 200th person to complain here about that issue.
Until Microsoft fixes Windows Mail, I recommend you use Outlook 2003.

Thanks Dave and Gary. Now I know what Microsoft is up to. Earlier, I
suspected it might be Microsoft problem but refuse to believe it.

this is the same issue i posted about. Could it really be true that
Microsoft just didn't address this issue?

Is there some other way to organize this information??
