MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / December 2004Contact sub-folder and addressing search list
Using Outlook 2000 SP-3, I created a Contacts subfolder 'test'. When sending mail, I enter the first few letters of the recipients email address, press ‘ctrl-k’ and ‘send’ once the address is found. If my recipients email is in the Contacts subfolder ‘test’ that entry is not found unless the sub-folder is listed on the Addressing tab under Tools, Services – ‘When sending mail, check names using...'. Is it possible to have all Contacts subfolders included in the address list and not have to manually add them to the search list? They are included if you have enabled them as email address book in their properties.  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Using Outlook 2000 SP-3, I created a Contacts subfolder 'test'.

My apologies if I haven’t clearly illustrated this scenario : Upon creation of a new email, I choose to send it to a contact listed in my Contacts folder. I enter the first few letters of the username, press ctrl-k, the address is resolved from contacts and I click ‘Send’. A second email, to be sent to an entry in a Contacts sub-folder, cannot be resolved unless I add the Contacts sub-folder to the Addressing tab under Tools, Services. The contact entry is found after pressing ctrl-k, otherwise any address listed in a sub-folder is not found. I would like to know if Outlook will allow ALL subfolders under Contacts to be searched as currently only the ‘root’ folder is searched.

If you're asking whether a Contact subfolder will be searched without your adding it to the Outlook Address Book Service, that would be no.
