This is a suggestion for the Outlook programmers.

DO NOT include field "Title" in the name column in the untitled Message
"To"
search

After importing a robust contact list developed in Excel, I now have to
Type
Mr., Ms., Dr., etc. when sorting contacts. Previously all I had to do was
type the first couple of letters of the persons first name when I wanted
to
add them to the "To" message field.
