Default Prefix + auto remove

Hi, I export my address book from outlook express 2003 and import to
outlook2007 as activesync require outlook for contacts storage. however,
all the prefix '+' are removed which made my contacts all invalid, i.e
unable to send SMS. Any idea how to resolve?

FWIW, imported contacts don't always resolve correctly. This used to happen
to me when I'd add a contact to an old Pocket PC 2002 device (a Toshiba
e740) and then sync it with Outlook. You might try running this free
utility and see if it helps:

Note that opening a problem imported contact and saving it also fixes any
resolution issues.
