So we should assume that you enabled this subfolder as an email address
book, right?
If so, then I would guess that your imported Contacts do not have resolved
email addresses. Look and see.
Outlook's import routine does not work as expected. Never has and likely
never will.

I imported contact information from a text file into a subfolder under the
Contact folder. Everything mapped correctly and looks normal. However,
Outlook doesn't appear to recognize the contacts. If I type one of the
names
into an email, it doesn't appear if I select "check names" and I can't
find
either the folder or the names in the Address book. It doesn't help to
move
one of these "phantom" contacts to the main Contacts folder. I have no
trouble with manually creating contacts in subfolders and having them
appear.
