Thanks Brian. I find the email address is underlined in both cases. The
ones which appear and does not. I am comparing those records which have
only email addresses.

I find some 2% of my entries in Contacts folder not showing up in the
Address book. Could someone clarify the relationship between the
Contacts folder and the Address book (what gets listed in the
composing screen for the addresses)?

The Address Book interface will show only those contacts that have
resolved electronic addresses (either email or fax) and only those in
Contacts folders you've enabled as address books. You can tell if a
contact's addresses are resolved when you open the contact's record
because they'll be underlined. Examine one of the contacts that you think
should appear but is not. Examine the email address and fax number
fields. Are the values underlined?
