Comment(by erich73):

 The "Send to"-field is confusing. The user might does not understand what
 to put into this field.

 The user might enter a normal e-mail, like "tom @ hotmail.com " and
 will get an error-message when sending the message.

 Other solution to this issue would be a "drop-down-box" with list of
 friends instead of the "auto-complete".
 "Auto-Complete" looks nice, but does not make it easy for users to
 understand what to do here.
 Please make this as simple as possible....... KISS.

 See screenshot attached.
