Can I stop Outlook re-naming existing contacts with GAL name?

Hello,

I've imported some contacts from a PST file to Outlook 2007. On many
of the contacts, I added descriptions after their name, e.g., "John
Doe (SALES)". Now I find that Outlook appears to have automatically
resolved the addresses to the GAL and re-named the imported contacts
with the GAL name! So the "(SALES)" tag has been dropped in the
example above.

Does Outlook do that and if so how to prevent it from doing that?

Thanks,

- Alan.
