Hi
My contacts display fine in the contacts folder and the details seem fine
but if I right click on a contact and choose "New message to contact" I
receive the error:
"Error creating new message! This may be caused due to an incorrect email
address or an invalid  name for a distribution list". This happens with every
name in my contacts folder, yet they all seem fine!
If I choose new mail and then click on the "To" button and select a contact
only a semicolon appears in the "To" box.
I have tried removing the address book and readding it but it makes no
difference.
Any suggestions
Thanks

I solved it myself. I exported the address book to a csv file and reimported
it and remapped the email addresses.
Now all is fine!
