Remarks

Setting the InitialAddressList property is the programmatic equivalent to selecting an AddressList from the drop-down list for Address Book in the Select Names dialog box.

In its default state, InitialAddressList is the AddressList that has the property AddressList.IsInitialAddressList set to True. IsInitialAddressList corresponds to setting Show this address list first in the Addressing dialog box, which is available by clicking Tools, and then Options in the Address Book dialog box.
