to Russ:

I had only a hotmail.com account, then activated a telenet.be account. When
I receive a message on it, and click the appropriate button, it will say
"this is not an Outlook contact" and when I click "add to contacts" the
sender's name will go into the new contact list. This also happens to senders
who are present on my original contact list with their various e-mail
addresses.

Is does not seem efficient to maintain duplicate Outlook files with each of
my e-mail accounts, but I don't know how & where to start combining.

PS I am an absolute Outlook beginner and do not know what a transport is.

Outlook does not do this unless it needs to. Provide a more accurate
description of what you actually did and what other transports you have in
this profile. If you had only a hotmail account in this profile, then of
course Outlook would need to create its own data file for any other type of
account.

After adding another (non-hotmail) e-mail account, I get a fresh blank
contact list, calendar, journal etc. which I do not want. How do I
connect
(or merge, or link) the second e-mail account to the existing contact
list,
calendar, etc. (Outlook 2003.)
