Which do you have set as your Default Address in Entourage? (There's a checkbox for this in the Home and Work panels of each contact.) By default, Work is set in Entourage, If you have only a Home address, then default will automatically be changed to Home address. If you have both, you have to change it to Home yourself if that's what you want. I _think_ the conduit uses the default address.  (There is probably some script to set the default. If not, you can use this if you really want it:

---------------
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
    set default postal address of every contact whose home address is not {street address:"", city:"", state:"", zip:"", country:""} to home address
end tell
---------------------------

That should do it for you. I think.
