Open Outlook 2003.
Click on Inbox.
Do "CNTL N" (to open a blank email.)
Click on "To" (to bring up the pop up for selecting receipients)
(and yes, my subfolders are enabled as email address books.)

From here, I want to send an email to say 3 persons whose names I may not
recall or know, and will need to search through my contact sub-folders in
order to locate them.
To find receipient #1, I would normally need to navigate through my contact
folder like this:
  contact  -> customers -> New York    (and then pick from all my new york
clients.)
To find receipient #2, I may need to do this:
  contact -> trades -> painters   (and then pick the name of a painter).
Similarly for the third receipient.

Unfortunately the "Select Names" pop up window does not present the contact
folders in hierarchy structure.
It also does not give user a sorted view of the folders, which for instacne
would allow me to zeroed in on "painters" quickly if I want to locate all my
painter contacts.
To appreciate the problem, please recall I do have many subfolders several
levels deep, so it would not be practical to just browse through the names of
the subfolders (100's of them) if they are not presented to user in some
logical order (such as "original hierarchy", or "sorted'.)

I am hoping that someone out there has a solution that provide any or all of
these capabilities:
(i)  ability to get the "Select Names" pop up to present contact subfolders
in collapsible  hierarch order;
(ii) ability to get the "Select Names" pop up to present contact subfolders
in sorted order;
(iii) ability to toggle the "email address book" setting for a subfolder and
all subfolders beneath it with one click;
(iv) ability to accumulate recipient names for a new email as these
receipients are identified by (A) clicking on the contact entry for the
receipient in a contact subfolder; and (B) finding the receipient using the
"Advanced Find" facility.
