How to use it

Since auto completion should be enabled per default you can just start typing part of a new name into the To field and thunderbird shows you a selection of suitable hits. The more characters you enter, the more the selection is narrowed down to the name you are looking for. If the name you are looking for shows up in the selection just click on it to add it.
