Default address book

[RFB]

Hi. I use Outlook 2000, Internet-Only Email.

When I create an email and click the To: button, it's annoying that I get a
list of EVERYONE in my contact list, even those people who have no email
address. So, I created a new folder to hold contacts, and copied all the
contacts that had email addresses to this new folder.

So now I have a list of contacts that have email addresses. Is there a way
to make this contact folder the default folder for when I click To:, so I
don't have to select it every time?

Or is there another way to do this entirely?

Thanks.

Welcome to IMO and the Windows Address Book.
You can always switch to Corp/Workgroup to use the real Outlook Address
Book.

Rather than my trying to read your mind and decide which mode is best for
you, please just read this information and follow all its links. I know of
no more comprehensive information on the differences between modes than
this. Your question is now largely moot since the two modes were abandoned
long ago. Current versions have only one mode and use the Outlook Address
Book.

Well, that site doesn't tell me a lot about the differences, more than what
they are suited for. Is Corporate/Workgroup really a lot slower than IMO?
Does it do other things "better" than IMO? Are there things I would lose by
going to Corporate/Workgroup? Also, if I switch and I don't like it, is it a
hassle to go back?

Thanks.
