I think the alternative is put the fax info in another

I ran across the same issue with one of my users. Yes you
can remove the contents of the Fax field and email
will no longer bring up the Fax contact but this
also means that you can not store fax numbers in your contacts. It
seems that there should be a way to disable the feature so
you can maintain fax numbers for your contacts and
not be forced to choose the email contact or fax
contact every time you want to send an email to that contact.

You can delete/remove the fax field from the contact list
and that would eliminate the issue.

Outlook Question
I have a client who just recently converted there email from
using POP to MAPI. This user is remotely located and
was using her personal email and now is using both
in the same profile. She just called to say that when she types a persons name in the To: field of an email and
that recipients also has a fax number allocated,
that she gets to choices to send the email to. It
would be a good function except for she is not using
any type of fax programs from her PC. So she would like to only
send email messages to email recipients not fax recipients.
Is there a way to turn that feature off so that the
fax recipients don't show up when recipient names
are being resolved. I think that it is stupid that it would want to list a fax number for an email message when no
faxing is going to occur. Any ideas? TIA!

RE: Simple Outlook Question

2001-10-19 Thread Daniel Gurrola


This may or may not work for you, but this is what I have found...and
unfortunately I don't know the detailed mechanics of it to explain what
must or must not be enabled to get the same results...
 
When composing a new message I enter the fist few letters of a
recipients (already in global address book/contacts/or personal address
book) last name and move to the next appropriate field (CC, BCC,
Body...) and the email address is automagically inserted. When more than
one name is needed I separate them with commas. I do know that this
feature is an option (OL2K: Tools Menu, Options, Email Options, Advanced
Email Options, Check both allow comma as address separator AND automatic
name checking). If you have a lot of contacts this can be a tad slow,
but I have over 150 and about the same in the global address book and I
don't find it terrible.
 
Now for the first few times I send email to a contact that has multiple
stored items I have to right-click on that name (red zig-zag line under
name warns me there are multiple possibilities for this contact) and
select between say Bob Smith (E-mail) or Bob Smith (Fax) or Bob Smith
(Pager), etc. When I have done this, usually just once, the next time I
use that name (without opening an address book) it automagically
populates the email address for that contact.
 
I am not sure if clearing your personal history lists would affect this
as I have not seemed to notice anything, but I could be wrong. There may
also be more settings that are helping this happen that I am not aware
of. It works for me and I HATE opening an address book anyway.
 
Example for me would be a message to bob smith, caren jaques, jamie
hernandez, michael stone
I only enter smit, jaq, hern, ston and move to begin typing my message,
and the names complete themselves properly.
 
The more of the last name you enter the faster the search with an EXACT
hit - especially when there are similarly spelled last names (smith and
smithen are a good example).
Also this search appears to be keyed off of the DISPLAY NAME not the
actual email address. I change all contacts email addresses to use the
persons first and then last name as the display name.
 
Hope you have the same luck because THIS SAVES ME A TON OF TIME - I
would not use my email as much otherwise.
Daniel

2001-10-18 Thread Dahl, Peter


Ellery has it right, here is the same recommendation straight from
Microsoft.

If your computer does not have fax capabilities, you may want to store the
fax number in a different field in the contact, such as the notes section.
