Address book question/ receipt question

[nthompson]

We are using Outlook 2002 with Windows XP (new upgrade last couple o
weeks.) When I use the address book to look up a contract address t
send a new email, it also pulls up the fax numbers. So, I will have
name listed twice, once with the email address and once with the fa
number. Is there any way to have the address book within the emai
program only list the email address?

Also, if we have selected the email option to request a delivery an
read receipt from an email recipiant, it also seems to be requestin
notification when the receipiant deletes an email. Anyway to remove th
"delete" notification request?

Thank you very much for any and all help!

The standard behavior for the Outlook Address book is to display all
electronic addresses (both fax and e-mail). That behavior cannot be changed.
The only way to prevent the display of fax numbers is to store them in a
different field or to disguise them (e.g., precede them with an alpha
character) so that Outlook won't recognize them as phone numbers.
There are also a number of utilities available that can do this for you
automatically. Some are listed here:
