You are, indeed, a better MVP than me, and much cooler headed. I would have

Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. Due to
the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.
After furious head scratching, Russ Valentine [MVP Outlook] asked:
| Outlook only permits one default Contacts Folder, so you would need to
| copy the contents of any subfolders into your mail Contacts Folder.
| For users who need to synchronize several groups of Contacts, it may
| be better to keep all Contacts in the main folder and use categories
| to create the grouping.
