How can I select which Address List to open "New Message" with"?

more options

When I start a new e-mail, the address list that shows on the left is now "Collected Addresses" instead of the Personal Address Book it always used to be. I can change from Collected Addresses to Personal Address Book but it always goes back to "Collected..." when I start a new msg. What caused this? How can I go back to the way it used to be?

Try restart Thunderbird with Add-ons disabled Help menu (Alt + H) and see if the problem persists. It works for me, so I suggest an add-on might be the cause.
