E-mailing multiple contacts

[Lori]

I am trying to e-mail multiple contacts from my address book. Outlook only
picks up 1/2 of the contacts I select & gives me the message "you must first
enter a valid e-mail address for this contact before Outlook can send mail to
it." When I go into the contacts it has rejected & retype the e-mail
address, it works. I don't want to have to do this for 90+ contacts. Does
anyone have an easier solution?

Easier than figuring out how you managed to corrupt so many of your email
addresses? How could we do that without more information? Post the steps
that can reproduce your problem. We have nothing to go on.

I went into my contact list, selected the contacts to receive the e-mail,
right clicked, selected create new e-mail message, and got the following
message:

"you must first enter a valid e-mail address for this contact before Outlook
can send mail to it"

it brought up the window for the new message, but only 1/2 of my contacts
were listed in the "to" field. When I looked at the contacts that weren't
listed, they did have valid e-mail addresses. I went in to the contact,
deleted the e-mail address, re-entered it, and it worked. Is there an easy
way to do this for 90+ contacts (maybe a refresh?)?
