Default contact list in email dialog

[JHEarcht]

I have created several contact folders for each of my 3
email accounts, and left the default CONTACT folder
empty. Now when I open the email dialog and click on TO:
I get the error message: "the contacts folder associated
with this folder could not be opened . . ." then it goes
to SELECT NAMES. From the list of folders there I can
select the contact folder that is associated with the
Mail folder.

How can I associate each of my contact sub-folders with
each of my three email accounts, so I don't have to go
looking for a contact list? In other words, I want the
selected account in the email dialog to automatically
find the associated contact lists. Thanks for your help.

You cannot set a per account default contact folder.
