Adding your personal address book and transferring your address list to your contacts
Please do the following steps to transfer your personal address book to your contacts:
- Close outlook
- Right click on "Microsoft Outlook" icon on the desktop
- Click on "Properties"
- Make sure "Microsoft Exchange Server" is highlighted.
- Click on "Properties" button
- Make sure that you are connected to the email server "HAM" and that your name is in the username area.
- Click on "OK"
- Click on "Outlook Address Book"
- Click on "Properties"
- Check to see whose contacts are in there. If they are not yours, remove them.
- Click on "OK"
- Click on "OK"
Now, open Outlook and see if it asks to transfer your personal address book to your contacts, if it does then click on yes and let it go. You will have your addresses in your contact list. If not, then you will have to do the following:
- Click on "File"
- Click on "Import and Export"
- Scroll down to the bottom and select "import from another program or file"
- Scroll down to "Personal Address Book"
- Click on "Browse"
- Click on the "Down Arrow" next to the text box at the top of the window.
- Choose "H:\ username$ on 'Eve' "
- Click on "mailbox.pab"
- Click on "OK"
- Click on "Next"
- Click on "Finish"
This should import all of the addresses you had in your personal address book to your contacts list. The good thing about this is that the contacts list follows your email around. If you access your email via the internet, your contacts will be there where your personal address book would not.
