When we open up/create a new email and click on the To
button, all of the contact information is shown,
including home phone numbers, fax numbers, etc., when all
we want to see is the email address. How do we change
this to only see the email addresses?

Thanks for the help
 
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:
