Default Over 3 email addresses possible?

I own Office 2003 w/business contacts manager (I do not use the business
contacts manager portion; I just use "contacts" in Outlook 2003)

Is it possible to assign more than 3 email addresses to one contact? Often,
I'll have a contact change jobs (new biz email address) or move (new personal
email address), so I need to add/replace email addresses for the contact.
The problem is if I replace email addresses due to being limited to 3
addresses, I lose all links of prior email correspondence to this contact.
Is there a way to retain the links to email addresses that are no longer
active and must be removed due to the 3 limit without manually linking all
old emails individually?

Thanks in advance!

Not to a single contact.

You could create a new, duplicate contact for that person and have three
more E-mail addresses available to you.

Thanks, Brian.

That's probably a good work-around.
