Thunderbird Imported Address Books Not Autofill
I recently did a system recovery on one of my HP Windows 7 Pro notebooks and afterwards installed Thunderbird 115.12.2 64-bit on it as I have on another identical HP Windows 7 Pro notebook. I had exported the address books from the working notebook and when I imported them into the new system they show up under address and when I star any of the addresses contained in them Thunderbird completes the auto fill. However if I try to get the autofill to work by starting the names of the actual address books Thunderbird doesn't recognize the address books. Also, if I make a new address book and add names to it it will not be recognized with autofill. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I regularly send to the recipients of the address books. Thanks James

Thanks for the suggestion. However, the address book settings were the same as my other HP notebook that is seeing the addressing books fine. I tried to make a mail list, which would do what I need. However, it would not allow me to drag/drop the contacts into it. It displayed the slashed circle when I hoovered over the new list with the selected contacts. I tried the same procedure on my other HP notebook and it worked exactly as it should and allowed me to drop contacts into the new list. There must be some reason that I'm missing that causes it to not allow me to drag/drop contacts into a list. It will allow me to move contacts from one address book to another. Thanks for any suggestions. J.
I have come up with a work around for the time being. I can make a new list under each address book that will have all of those contacts in it. If I enter a few letters of the new list name it will auto fill the lists. It's not as smooth as I had hoped but it works for now. Thanks to all for their input. J.
