I finally got a PC with Windows 7. I had used XP with Outlook Express for 10 years or so, and loved to be able to organize my address book into folders. However, Outlook Express is out with Windows 7. Now I am trying figure out how to put my email addresses into folders for ease of use. Is this possible?

Address books do not use folders.

You can manually create any number of address books in the 'Address Book'. Think of the 'Address Book' like a paper Address Book. So you could create a different address books to hold contacts by eg: A letter eg: 'A -contacts' OR where surname is grouped: A - M and N - Z or separate into different address books: eg: keep Family contacts in 'Personal Address Book' Create another address book for 'Friends', another for 'Business' etc

You create a new address book here:

  • Click on 'Address Book'
  • File > New > Address book

Mailing lists: Any address book can also have one or more 'Mailing Lists'. Any contacts you want to put in a Mailing list must be in the associated address book and have a vaild email address. Mailing Lists are used when you want to send one email to a group of specific contacts. More info on Mailing Lists:

You can make several address-books or you can make lists and you can use categories. I have an add-on: MoreFunctionsForAddressBook

You are free to add as many address books as you wish. It comes with Personal Address Book and Collected Addresses; File|New|Address Book will let you add more.

You can create "folders" inside an existing address book, but these are actually "Mailing Lists" and are akin to Groups or Distribution Lists; each is a subset of Contacts from the parent address book.

As a newcomer to Thunderbird, I think you may find your way round faster if you enable Toolbars and Menus. The main window has an Application Menu button which is offered as an alternative to traditional menus. However other windows, such as the Write window and the Address Book don't have this button, so you'll need Toolbars and you may find menus useful.
