My contact list in outlook has no duplicates, but when I try to send an email
and I click on the "to" button, my adress book comes out full of duplicated
names, when I check the names, one has the email on the email field, and the
other one has a number or fax in the email field, but all the fields are
perfect in the contaxct list...How do i fix this situation?

The standard behavior for the Outlook Address book is to display all
electronic addresses (both fax and e-mail). That behavior cannot be changed.
The only way to prevent the display of fax numbers is to store them in a
different field or to disguise them (e.g., precede them with an alpha
character) so that Outlook won't recognize them as phone numbers.
There are also a number of utilities available that can do this for you
automatically. Some are listed here:
