Default Outlook Contacts "From" Field

I imported some contacts from someone else’s address book and if I send a
email from these imported contacts, the email’s “From” field list the person
from whom I imported the contact from, instead of my email address.

How do I remove the other persons email and replace it with mine from an
outlook contact? The specific field can be found opening a contact, Click on
“Show All Fields”, Select From “All Post Fields” and in the body you will see
“From” with an email address that is not mine?

Any suggestions?

Default Outlook Contacts "From" Field

Since Outlook does not use an address book and since importing is never the
correct way to transfer Outlook data, one must ask for a more accurate and
more complete description of what you did and why. I would also include
other relevant information such as Outlook version, information store, and
precise steps used to corrupt the data.
