email address book

I just installed vista, and have my address book in place, but when I want to
send an email and I type in the first few characters of an email address in
the send to block, it will not pull up the address. What am I doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong. The so-called auto-complete
feature doesn't work well in Windows Mail. It will only
remember the last 29 recipients you've already sent mail to.
This feature does work well in Windows Live Mail, so you
may want to upgrade:
