So...I'm having the same problem with my list. I've left the Email 1 blank
and entered addresses in to the email 2 because that's where iPhone has
assigned the home email. So I know that the emails listed in email 2 work
because I can click on it from my contact page and send email....but it won't
show up as a valid entry in my standard outlook "address book". I keep
seeing "unresolved address" mentioned in this thread.....the email works
through the contact list, so how does that make it unresolved? and of course
how do i get the addresses that are in the contact to appear in the address
book? people with email 1 and email 2 entries in contacts appear as they
should with seperate line entries in the address book for each email.
