Windows Mail question on veiwing the contacts

[mpooley]

Hi all
When creating new mail if you click the 'to' link the contacts list pops up.
I find this very useful but as my list is so long now I have to scroll down a lot to find my contact.

What I would like to do is to have my 'favorite' contacts list show instead of the full list.

could anyone explain how or if I can do this please?

Hi Mike,

If you type the first letter or two in the 'To' box, WLM will find the entry your looking for or a selection of contacts with the same first letters.

Thanks
But I need to send the emails to several people using Bcc so I need the contact list to pop up (or I think I do )
so it would be really helpful to be able to choose which list of contacts pops up

Mike,

You can send to multiple contacts in the 'To' box separated by a comma, using the same method I described above.

Ah Ok How do I make it a 'Bcc' rather than 'to'

thanks

Bcc stands for Blind Carbon Copy. EG, mail your sister using the 'To' box then mail your brother the same message using the 'BCC' box. Niether of them will know you sent the other the same message. Hope this makes sense.

Ah! it does now. I have never noticed the show CC & Bcc link on the right so I didn't have the choice before

thanks
