Open a new email message and click  on the "To" button

Click on the "Address Book" option on the far right of the ribbon

Click "Tools", then "Options"

Select "Start with Global Address List" if it is not already selected.

Click on the down arrow to the right of "Choose Automatically" and then select "Global Address List".

Click OK to close that dialog box.

Hit the X in the upper left to close the open dialog box.

You're done.

Now, when you start a new message and click the "To" button, the default Address Book will be the "Global Address List".
