when I go to Contacts, there’s no contacts there. If I open a new message,
and go to the address book next to TO: I have all my contacts there.
I am using Outlook 2003 and using Exchange server to get my POP emails.
On Account Setup window, I see:
MS Exchange Server (default)
domain_name.com
Fax Mail Transport

"Deliver email to :
Mailbox - <user name>"

TIA.
 
If you have your Contacts in your address book, then they exist in your
profile.
Use Folder view to examine your entire folder hierarchy.
 
Hi Russ,
Thanks for the reply.
When I click on New and then "To:", I see two "Contacts" in the dropdown
"Show names for:". Viewing the properties for the two showed one listing
"Personal Folders" and the other "Mailbox - <user name>".
I imported contacts from "persoanl folders" pst file and they now show up in
the contacts list. However, I still have two contacts listed in the dropdown
and don;t know how to get rid of the "personal folder" one.

Thanks.

Just remove the invalid reference to a Contacts Folder here:
Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or address
books > Outlook Address Book > Change.
