Windows Mail Contacts

I have folders in contacts with several contacts in each.... under the old
OE, I had the option of choosing a specific folder and then selecting the
contact "to address mail to". I can not figure out how to make this happen
in Mail.... EVERY contact displays when I click on "TO". This is not
efficient... to scroll through all contacts. Thanks for any tips on how to
get the Contact setup to display as I want it to.

Contacts do not work very well in Windows Mail.
If you need that feature, upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
