Default Auto-fill only shows 1 choice

Suppose I have three contacts named "Joe":

Joe Brown
Joe Jones
Joe Smith

In Outlook 2000, I used to get "suggestions" when I clicked on Send if
an entry I typed in the To... field was ambiguous. In the example, it
would show me the three joe's and I could pick the one I wanted for
that email.

Just upgraded to Outlook 2007. Now when I type "joe" the first time,
it works like it did on Outlook 2000. Let's say I select Joe Jones.
Now the next time I type "joe" in the To... field, it automaticlaly
fills in "Joe Jones" and does not offer me the other choices. I can't
see how to get it to offer me all three choices.

What would be really helpful is for it to show all matching contacts,
but with the most common ones at the top.

How can I at least get it to show me all of the alternatives?
