When I click on write in Thunderbird, the Contacts Address Book that opens is only the Personal Address Book so only personal contacts shown, but I would like to see All contacts shown as standard when clicking on Write. Any help gratefully received. Dickie43

You can switch which address book you are looking at to any address book, or to All Address Books.

Click on the button I point out in my screenshot below, and you will see a drop-down menu showing a list of your address books. All Address Books is at the top of the list.

Thanks for your reply Bruce. I was already aware of the selection option, but I would like, when selecting the write option that the All Address Books would openautomatically and that the personal and collected Address Books would have to be selected manually
