Contact subfolders don't show up when creating rules

OUTLOOK 2003 -- I'm trying to create rules for messages from people in my
address book. I have my Outlook Contacts organized into subgroups (i.e.,
Work, Personal, Book Club). When I click the From button in the rule dialog,
it lets me select Outlook Address Book, with a drop-down for Contacts.

But it only shows the few items in my general Contacts folder. The
subgroups don't show up, nor do they appear in the drop-down or anything.

So, I'm having to enter every address into the rule individually. How do I
select contacts from my sub-groups when creating a rule?

Thank you very much for any insight.
 
Right click on each of the sub folders, choose Properties, go to the Outlook
Address Book tab and check the "Show this folder as an email address book"
box.
