Hows does one show all emails received from and/or sent to a particular
contact?

I understand how to show all from a particular email address (open an email
- related - messages from sender), but some of of my contacts use multiple
email addresses and it is annoying to add them in manually each time I do a
search. I have their email addresses saved in their contact information, so
is there a way to easily show all messages from that particular contact?

While we're at it: is there a way to add more than 3 email addresses to a
contact? Some of the people I correspond with overseas use up to 8 addresses
(crazy foreigners).

Thanks!

Why wouldn't you be using the Activities Tab for this? That's what it's for.

Ah, in order to get that to work (I am using gmail/IMAP) I had to go into
contact properties - activities tab and change the folder used from
"personal mail" to my gmail/IMAP folder. I wasn't aware of this feature...
thanks.

Here is an interesting follow-up question:

When using gmail/IMAP, some emails from my foreign contacts do not appear
when searching through activities. I researched which emails this was
happening to and found that for some reason outlooks displays those emails as
from:

Name: [email address changed]
Email address: =?EUC-KR?B?yLK+xrinIDxyZXVtaW9AYXZhbG9uLmNvLmtyPg==?=

Now, I tried double clicking on the "from" line and changing how the
name/address is displayed, but it reverts back to how it was as soon as I
leave that message screen. The result is many emails not appearing in the
activities search for that contact (or in a xobni search for that contact).

However, this is not a problem when using web-based gmail or outlook with a
POP3 connection--the "from" field appears completely normal and the emails
appear in an activities search. Is there a solution to this problem (I
apologize if this is also relatively obvious--I am new to Outlook)?

IMAP and foreign contacts are important details you managed to leave out of
your posts until now. I have no idea. Good luck to you. Always post complete
details if you actually expect help from a newsgroup.

That information (gmail/IMAP and foreign contacts) was only necessary for the
follow-up question--the original was answered fine without the clutter.
Thanks for the info nonetheless.

Does anyone know the answer?

Also, what about the other, small question at the bottom: Does anyone know
how to add more than three email addresses to a contact?
