Using dec03 commercial trunk build

When you select the criteria for Sender is/isn't in Address Book from within
Filters, Search, or Views UI, if mailing lists are present in the selected
address book it causes display problems in the dropdown; the mailing lists are
not indented, may display all on one line.

I haven't seen anything in the UI specs yet which address whether we'll even
want to display mailing lists in this criteria dropdown. 

If we need to show the mailing lists, we should clean up the relative display.
If we don't want them here, take them out of display.
I just ran across bug 180013, so it appears we indeed want the lists here.  
Summary: Mail lists in Filter/Search Address Book criteria cause display problem → Clean up display of mailing lists in Filter/Search AB criteria
Attached image Example - Lists in ABs
Looks like this feature is still a work in progress ;-)

1. Lists should be listed vertically, one below another, exactly how they
appear in the parent AB. Not horizontally.

2. Lists should be indented below their parent AB.

3. The drop down list should be a lot longer before having to use the up/down
scroll arrows. I've got 7 items listed in my attachment, but there is still
vertical space, so maybe don't scroll until 10 items?

4. Scrolling doesn't seem to be working correctly. I tried clicking on the up
and down arrows and nothing happens.(2002120308 Trunk, windows)

Option 1 - shows the vertical listing and indentation of lists.
Option 2 - also includes icons (abs vs. lists vs directories)
mass re-assign.
