Doing an empty search (pressing return in the search bar in the contacts window)
shows the hidden entries, and only entries with an assigned category can be
selected sending a new mail.

Hope this helps.

P.S.: I'm sorry, my english is alpha version.

OK, after a freshly started machine a can now select names from the addressbook.
Perhaps evolution-data-server needed restarting? 

BTW is there a way to access the addressbook? Currently there are no menu
options to make the address book appear.

  View->Window->Contacts

or use

  View->Switcher

to make the sub-application switch buttons visible.
