When I pull up my email contact list it shows the email
but it also lists their fax # if it was put in their
contact info. Example
Bob Loblaw (E-mail)
Bob Loblaw (Business Fax)

How do I get rid of the fax listing without having to
delete it from the contact profile?
 
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:
