Does that mean that the contact folder itself shows as a contact folder and
the items below it as mail items?
If that's the case - sounds that somewhere along the way, the message class
for these items(contacts) - got changed to IPM.Note from IPM.Contact and
could be as simple as changing the message class back to what it should be
(IPM.Contact - if no default custom form was applied to the folder). There
are a variety of free tools that will let you change the message class for
these items (see
http://www.slipstick.com) or you could use our utility to
do that "ContactGenie - Message Class Modifier" (also free -

My father had his computer worked on and when he got it back the addresses
under Contacts had been converted to messages. The icon on the the
subfolders
under Contacts are Inbox icons. Any idea how to convert them back? When he
opens a contact, it opens a message(email) box with "to" and "from" but no
actual info (address, phone#s, etc.).
