address book in windows mail

[SocialAbility]

I am using Windows Vista and Windows Mail as my default email with. I have made 4 different address book in Windows mail, separate for Family, friends, etc. Now the problem am facing is when I create new email message and try putting sender’s email address, I get all the list of email addresses when clicking Address book, instead of the 4 separate folders. And hence I need to go with each and every address every time again. This was not the case when I was using Outlook Express. There I use to get separate folders as I have created for addresses.

Can you guys please tell me if I can make the same happen in Windows mail as well? Thank you.

There is no such feature made in Windows mail. It was in outlook express and if you want to use it again, you will need to upgrade to Windows Live Mail. WLM provides you the contacts group separately and also allows you to expand and delete individual recipients from a group.

So just download and install Windows Live Mail and later import your mail/contacts from Windows mail.

Thanks for your suggestion friend. As you said I decided to upgrade to Windows Live Mail but when am trying to download the same, it gives me an error message saying “Windows Live won't run on my OS”.

What’s wrong with my system> It is Windows Vista 64bit os.

That’s unfortunate. The error is Genuine because Windows Live Mail is available only for Windows 32bit operating systems as of now.

They will take few more months for making it available for 64bit windows.
