Originally I had 2 contacts folders showing up when I tried to pull people’s
e-mail addresses to send an e-mail. The default folder was empty. I did
this to try and correct the problem. Tools > E-mail accounts > View or
change existing directories or address books > Outlook Address Book > Change
and removed both folders thinking I could easily recreate the link to the
folder I wanted. The problem is now I cannot get any addresses to populate.
Have you got any suggestions on how to fix? Thanks, Lee

What do you mean you can't "get any addresses to populate?" What are you
trying?
All you need to do is make sure your Contacts Folder is enabled as an email
address book, then add it to the Outlook Address Book Service at the same
place you removed the others.
