John, I may be remembering wrongly about 1.08. I converted to the 1.2 beta recently, and it acts like you describe - even if only one match exists, you still have to select it from a menu, at least for local address book. I'll check with LDAP and with an exchange address list when I get a minute. Reverting to 1.08 is not something I will do lightly.
