I am having the same problem with Outlook XP.. Now I have
duplicates...email addresses and fax's. How stupid to
have a list called "email type" and then see SMTP and
Fax????
 
Stupid?
Fax numbers are electronic addresses too. 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:
