I guess I'll try *NOT* selecting anything for inclusion in the pop-up menu and maybe they will magically appear in the address field context menu instead. I've not been able to get an address list pop-up in the address fields since somewhere in v2 or v3 (though I do get a list of things that kind of match what I've started to type, but that doesn't always help if I do not remember the name I'm looking for!) I'm sure there's a setting to control which of the context menus is displayed, but actually /finding/ a specific new setting in TB is far too much like finding a four-leaf clover in a very large clover field!

The last time this happened was when I went from 4.2.44.2 to 5.0.8 in April 2011 and reverting to 4.x "fixed" the problem. FWIW, I've had this list go empty several times when trying new betas over the years, but they happen so far apart that I forget how to fix them! It is starting to look like I'll be going back to 4.2.44.2 again. It isn't that I need (or use) any of the new things added to the 5.x line, I was just trying to stay current on a product I find worthy of supporting. But it keeps breaking the one age-old feature that I *DO* use often.
