I imported a .csv file and aligned Fname, Lname, e-mail. When I display the imported e-mail addresses the titles are Name, e-mail, Chat name, Org, and Work phone. The display shows 2 columns of e-mail addresses. Can these headers be changed to display the F & L Names, e-amil addr and home phone number?

I like to look up my "send to names" to pick them, not the e-mail address.

Thanks for any help, Jim Moore

try clicking the standard heading selector (the square thing above the up/down slider) and selecting the headers to display.

You might try turning on the contact pane in the compose windows (F9)

I suggest you just type in the "to field. it lists your contacts and starting with V60 will include a highlight of the matched text from the address book entries

Has been years since I used Thunderbird, Outlook 2016 has made it easy to return. I also found that the csv import does not do the auto fname+lname and display like it does when you add a new contact. I simply added the display name to each contact record and they now display properly.
