Outlook 2007 Distribution List Problem
Imported data from MobileMe (so I sync an iPhone with the PC). Point is yes,
I have a folder(??) called Contacts under the My Contacts tab. I have it
syncing well with MobileMe. I can send emails just fine. Since MobileMe has
tabs for different email addresses (e.g.: Home, Work, Other, custom, etc.)
they translate to E-mail, E-mail 2, E-mail 3, etc. The Distribution List
builder function only seems to want to look at the first E-mail field [in the
contact information] and if it doesn't have an email address there, it won't
add it to the list (even though there is a valid address in the 'E-mail 2'
field. So, is there anyway around this short of screwing up my other
application syncs (Mac, iPhone, MobileMe, Gmail Contacts) by having to re-do
my contacts and put home email addresses into the work email address fields
(mapped to 'E-mail') ?
Let me put this another way... If you have multiple email addresses in one
contact, is there a way to choose the one(s) you want to use on a
Distribution List?
Thanks in advance...

You have provided no necessary information. So you just "installed" Outlook
2007. Since you appear already to have a "Contacts Folder," are we to assume
you migrated data to this new installation? If so, how? How did you
configure the Outlook Address Book Service in this new installation?

I have just installed Outlook 2007.
I have a Contacts folder with many contacts that I'd like to add to a
Distribution List.
When creating the list, I click on the select members button.
I add members by double clicking on the members name, or clicking the
'Members -' button. Members names are added to the list underlined.
When I
have selected all of my members, I click the 'OK' button in the dialog
box.
NONE of the members I selected show up in the Distribution List window
unless
they have a primary E-mail address. The problem is that most of my
contacts
have an 'E-mail 2' or 'Email-3' address (Home as opposed to work). How do
I
get people with only an Email-2 or Email-3 address to show up in a
Distribution List?
