I am using Outlook 2002. After accidentalyly deleting all my contacts, I
have now re-established a contacts list. However, when preparing a new email message and click on the address book to select a name, the name appears in the "message recipients" column, as it appeared to de do previously. Now when I send the message, it bounces as undeliverable. From what I can see, the name only is selected rather that the attached email address. I have tried to fix this problem by reading forums etc, but to no avail. Can somebode please help me to get this fixed. |

Thank you Russ for your assistance. I followed your lead and checked through
thereference you provided, but to no avail. Outlook is still not working as it did before. Do you have any further ideas, and/or should I try to reinstall Outlook.

When you double click an entry in the Outlook Address Book, what happens?

When "building" a new email message to send, fisrt I click for a new massage,
then click on the address book to open it. A name is selected, and when I double click on the name, the name is populated into the "To" field of the new email. I have rechecked the contacts folder where the name and email address are both included, and this appears to me to be OK. I reestablished the contacts list by typing in all the details that I held from another source. From my basic knowledge of outlook, Contacts seems to me to an Address Book within the Outlook Address Book.

It should be easy to determine where the problem lies.
Next time send the message from your Contacts Folder (Actions New Message to Contact) and see if that works. If it does, then your Outlook Address Book is corrupt and simply needs to be reset. If it does not, you did not type a valid email address in the Contact Record. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Graham" wrote in message ...

Russ, thank you very much for your assistance. I have done all that you
suggested, but still no change to my problem. I have now started to re-type email addresses into Outlook, and for those done, all is working OK. So, I don't know really what the problem was, but am getting past it. Thanks again Graham Anderson "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: It should be easy to determine where the problem lies.
