When mailing a new mail message and pulling up the
address book a double for each user in my contacts folder
is displayed, one is the SMTP address and the other is
the Business Fax number. Is there a way to filter this
list so that only SMTP address are displayed?
 
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:
