Fax number as a choice when sending emails

[Camilla]

Hi,
When I bring up my contact list to insert email addresses
into an email I get two listing of each contact that also
has a fax number listed in their contact file.
Is there a way to just show the name associated with the
email address. I do not plan to send emails to fax
numbers.
Thanks,
Camilla

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:
