How do I get auto complete to work in windows mail as it used to work
in OE 6? In OE 6 I used to be able to type in the first few letters
(as few as 1) of the persons email address or the name in the name
field. In most cases I would get the correct address filled in or be
given only a few choices of which one was the one I was looking for.
I do not see the name field anymore in the vista address book
properties. I saw a nickname field and tried it, but that did not
seem to work.

Any help appreciated.
 
In Windows Mail select Tools, then Options, then Send tab and check
"automatically complete email addresses", click on Apply, then OK. For the
address book, in Windows Mail select Tools, then Windows Contacts, then
select View, then select Choose Details. Here you can select what you want
displayed and in which order. Then under View, select Sort By and click
Name. Click on Apply, then OK.
