That is the Auto-complete function and, AFAIK, it works from the Address
Book. When you start typing a name it 'suggests' one or more addresses.
If because of the characters you typed it can be one of several, then is
when you automatically get a drop-down to choose from. But this
drop-down is not the history drop down. You get the history drop down by
clicking in the double down arrow on the right.

Right. And you also get the same popup if you hover or click on the
little triangle on the right of the 'Create new message' button in the
toolbar.
