Lauout view of Contacts list

[Mike & Karen]

In my old OE6. layout, I could have the contacts list showing down the left
bottom pane. This I found to be useful as it meant I could right click a
contact & among the list of commands, I could select "send email'.
This now doesn't seem to be available to me...? Is there some setting I can
use to display my contact list in this way please.
Step by step instructions would be of help if the above is still possible,
thanks.
Mike

There is no option within Windows Mail to display contacts like
they were in OE. The recommended method of starting a new
email in Windows Mail:
1. Click on "Create Mail."
2. Click on "To".
3. Select recipients.

No, you can't put it there...
but since Contacts is just a folder, you can leave it open all the time.
Then you can right-click on a contact, and select "Action" - "Send email"
