The best way to get at this information is with the %AbnnnPPP macros.
This is for use in message templates.

I see what you mean, but TB's address book is (at present) only there
to provide data for templates and message address headers. Contact
management is an area of reasonable complexity. To offer such
functionality in TB could either signify bloat or open TB to a new
area of criticism in how lacking such a feature might be until it came
up to the usefulness of a PIM. Then, suddenly, we're all running
Outlook. Okay, that's a pessimistic viewpoint, but I find it hard to
imagine it working myself.
