I am currently getting my email in Outlook via Army Knowledge Online. I have
added email addresses to my Personal Address Book, as well as my Contacts
list.

When I try to compose a new message, the Contacts list doesn't come up, just
the PAB. However, when I address a message to someone in the PAB, the
message will not be sent. I instantly get a message back that says the email
could not be sent because " None of your e-mail accounts could send to this
recipient."
What does this mean? How do I get the same listing of addresses in the PAB
and Contacts? And how can I send a message to someone in my PAB?

The Personal Address Book is long obsolete and you should be using your
COntacts folder exclusively.

When I try to compose a new message, the Contacts list doesn't come
up, just the PAB.

Right-click the Contacts folder, choose Properties, select the Outlook
Address Book tab and check the box labeled "Show this folder as an e-mail
Address Book".

However, when I address a message to someone in
the PAB, the message will not be sent. I instantly get a message
back that says the email could not be sent because " None of your
e-mail accounts could send to this recipient."

You have a misconfigured account

Since you haven't stated how you have configured your account, there's no
way to tell you how to fix it.

Outlook has not used a PAB for many years. Neither should you. PAB's are no
longer supported.
Use your Contacts and the Outlook Address Book instead:

OK, Well when I try to address a new message, what opens up is the PAB....not
my contacts list. Is there a way to change this? to get Outlook to point to
the Contacts instead of the PAB?

OK, I went to the link you included. I went thru all the steps in Part 2 and
Part 3. Now all of my addresses in the PAB are in the Contacts. But I am
still getting the email error message when I try to send a new message.

Are you saying you completely migrated to using the Outlook Address Book?
If so then you have additional problems in configuring your mail accounts
for which you have not posted enough information for us to troubleshoot.
State Outlook version, mail account type, address type, steps used to send
messages, and exact error messages.

I am saying that I followed the instructions provided at the link you sent me
earlier. If that means I "completely migrated to using the Outlook Address
Book", then that is what I have done.
All I know for sure is that I am using Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 with
Business Contact Manager Update. I "get" my email from Army Knowledge Online
(meaning, I have an email account there, and I have set up an outlook account
so that the AKO mail is sent to my outlook....make sense?).
Currently if I want to send a message thru outlook, I have to either
physically type in the email address of the person I am sending the message
to, or reply to a message that I have already recieved from that person. I
cannot compose a new message and select addressees from my Contacts list and
send that email.....I get the error message that I mentioned earlier.
One of your counterparts mentioned yesterday that I might have configured
this outlook account incorrectly, but did not say how to fix it.
I have spoken with my peers who have done the same steps to configure their
outlook to retrieve mail from AKO, and they are not having these problems.
Any help you can provide is appreciated.

The instructions I posted have multiple scenarios. I have no idea which you
used.
That message indicates that you have not configured your mail account
correctly. Not sure how we can help you with that since only you have those
instructions.
Your mail account is not recognizing the addresses you are entering.
