When I click on Contracts in Vista Mail they all look ok. I have names of
those I sent to often, and then I
have sub-folders, i.e., family, friend, business, etc. But when I go to
send a message and try to select
the people I want to send to "ALL" of the name I have in both the list and
those in the subfolders all
show up on the list. Is there anyway I can get the ones in the sub-folders
not to show up. Like I was
able to do in OE..............Thanks !.

Thanks for the link Gary. Nice site !
However that's not what I'm looking for. I don't want to put them in a
folder so "all" are recipients in this folder get the same
e-mail. I want them categorized by type and have those who I usually send
e-mails to in the main list where I
choose which ones I want to include each time.
When I open up the contacts folder in Vista Mail or from the All Programs
they look like what I am trying to achieve, but
when I either to a new or forward e-mail and go to choose which contacts I
want to send to, they are "all" there, the ones
I want on my primary list and all the ones I put in their own group. Any
solutions to obtaining what I need.
Thanks !


Windows Mail Contacts doesn't handle folders, only groups; see
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/69738-contact-groups-windows-mail.html
 
Windows Mail Contacts always shows *all* the contacts,
including group names, but you can select a specific group
from that list.

The contacts organization is a bit more flexible in Windows Live Mail,
where after selecting a group you can expand the group and delete
one or more recipients.
