I just started using Thunderbird and believe I have my address book set up right, but when I want to compose an email to send out and start typing in the "to' field, it searches my contact list by the email address instead of by their name - I want to search by their name, because I don't have all the email addresses memorized so can't know if it is grabbing the right one without the name being shown to me. PLUS once I do select from the addresses offered, it displays it in the 'To' by the email address and not by their name - which i would also prefer their name to show there too.
