Default Outlook Fax Numbers

Hi All,

I want to re-raise the old issue of Fax numbers showing up in the Outlook
Address book when one is sending an email. I know that this can be stopped
by prepending the Contact's fax number with a letter so that Outlook doesn't
see it as a valid fax number and therefore doesn't list it. What's always
puzzled me, however, is that this fix doesn't work if the fax numbers are
changed using an export to CSV, doing a mass modify on the CSV, and then
reimporting the modified Contacts. It only seems to work if the Contacts are
modified manually within Outlook. Can anyone explain this odd behavior, and
suggest a way around it?

-Peter

Default Outlook Fax Numbers

Importing fax numbers doesn't "resolve" them as addresses like entering them manually does.
