Restrict emails sent to "bus fax" numbers

[Guest]

When sending group emails, my Outlook is grabbing "Bus Fax" numbers and
attempting to email to those numbers. How can I stop this or can Microsoft do
something in future releases to correct that problem.

Why are you selecting those addresses?
No one is forcing you to.

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.
