I used Microsoft Outlook Express before Vista and had my email addresses
listed in a pane on the left below my folder view. I cannot find how to make
this occur in Microsoft mail.

Any one have the trick for this one? I canot find the setting anywhere.

Thanks,

No, there is no option in Windows Mail to display contacts in the folder view.
Microsoft focus groups indicated that very few people used that feature, so it
was done away with.

If that is true, then the "Microsoft focus groups" are pretty stupid! The
contact management in Windows Mail is horrible and - like others - I am
missing features like the one described a lot!
 
There are many contact management systems, many that you pay for to do what
they do. Windows Mail is a email program that is provided with Vista. The
contact management part is primitive and anyone attempting to run a business
with it is foolish.
 
Yeah, they screwed it up when they went from OE to WinMail and then even
worse going to WLM.

Both WM and WLM are worse that OE as far as issues like this and many others with
them is concerned. I switched to Outlook for email when OE stopped developing and
only use OE as my newsreader
