Default Difference Between Address Book and Contacts Folder

One of the computers in my office was showing two
Contacts lists when you click on "To" in a New message. I
went to Tools, Email Accounts, and removed the Contacts
list she didn't want. Before I deleted the Contacts list
she didn't want, the "Show this folder as an email
address book." was checked at the Contacts folder. When I
deleted the Contacts list she didn't want the box was
unchecked at the "Show this folder as an email address
book," but when you clicked on "To" in a New message you
saw the Contacts list she wanted to keep. When I went to
the Contacts folder and added a new person, they showed
up in the Contacts folder, but did not show up when I
clicked "To" in a new message and if I clicked on the
Address Book icon they were not in there.

Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? Is the
Address Book and the Contacts folder two separate lists?

You just removed the wrong reference to the Contacts Folder. Add it back and
remove the other.
