Re: .pst contacts
Thanks for your answer.
I can't tell you precisely how much that irritates me. Somewhere between

Absolutely unbelievable that Microsoft hasn't done it.

That's Microsoft for you. They love to make things proprietary.

Send responses to the relevant news group rather than to me, as
E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM
filter. Due to Google's refusal to prevent spammers from posting
messages through their servers, I often ignore posts from Google
Groups. Use a real news client if you want me to see your posts.

Would you prefer he gave you no way? We don't work for Microsoft and
volunteer our time to help. If you want to vent send Microsoft feedback.
