autofill in compose windows mail

When i compose messages in windows mail, it will only autofill contact
names if i've used them in the past 24 hours. i have automatically
autofill names checked in the tools-options list. why does it only work
sometimes?

Unfortunately, that's how its auto-complete works. It only
remembers the last 29 recipients you've sent mail to.
I recommend you upgrade to Windows Live Mail which has
a much better auto-complete feature:

I tried to download it, but did not know whether to say Run or Save

It never hurts to choose Save. When it finishes downloading,
it should give you an option to run the saved file.
