I have a pst file from outlook 2002, I imported it back into 2002 and 2007
with the same issue:
ALL CONTACTS APPEAR IN DELETED ITEMS AS EMAILS! When I move them back to
contacts, they are fine, but the email addresses and phone numbers are
missing!!
What is happening here?
As posted here many many times, on a daily basis:
DO NOT USE THE IMPORT FUNCTION TO TRANSFER DATA FROM ONE OUTLOOK TO ANOTHER!
Copy the pst file to your HDD, do not overwrite any existing pst file.
Remove any read-only attribute if set.
Then in Outlook do File-Open-Outlook Data File. Navigate to where you put
it. Then copy (or drag and drop) the data from the old file to the new. QED.
Go here for more detailed instructions on the correct way to transfer data
from one Outlook to another:
