New message to Contact issue

G

Guest

Hi,
When I right click on a contact entry and click on New message to contact.
I get "You must first enter a valid e-mail adress for this contact before
Outlook can send mail to it" error and justs fills in the Names of the
person.

If I double click on the contact and use the "New message to contact" tool
bar, it works just fine.

I did import the contact from CSV file generated by ACT 2005.

I already tried removing the address book and re-adding it. I also made
sure that the contact list is included in the search list.

Please help.

Sounds like the email address in the Contact record is not valid or
resolved. See if it is. It often isn't if you've imported the Contact.
