When I imported my email addresses from XP (.wab), it alphabetized them
according to FIRST names not last names. What to do?
 
It depends on where you are looking...
In the Contacts folder:
If you have a column for "Last Name", just click on the heading to sort
(up/down).
If you don't see the Last name column, add it by right-clicking on the Name
heading and select "Last".

If you mean in the Select Recipients window:
Click on the "Name" column heading.. it cycles thru 4 sortings....
 
Thank you. This worked perfectly. Can you help me with this:
In XP, I had my contacts in separate folders (not groups). I cannot figure
out how to do this in Vista. Please advise.
 
Windows Mail works differently than OE did. Many users say it's a step
backwards.
Although you can create folders and move contacts into them, it doesn't do
much good.
When you click on the To: button, all contacts will show up, disregarding
the folders.
However, you can open the Contacts folder directly, go to a sub-folder, and
right-click on an email address and select Action - Send Email to...
 
Well, I have Outlook 07 on this new PC, which I haven't used yet.
May I assume it will have the folder features?
