I recently upgraded to Vista and Outlook 2007. I did not lose any data in
the process, but I have been unable to link my Outlook email address book
with my contacts.

I have reviewed the fixes I was able to find in previous posts. I closed
Outlook, went to Control Panel-Mail-Email Accounts. I tried first to add my
email account automatically. However, it returned an error message
indicating it could not find the server settings (encrypted). It gave me the
option to try unencrypted settings, which I tried, no luck.

I was able to add the address back in by entering the settings manually.
However, when I go to the address books tab in the Mail Setup window, and
click on change, there is no address book shown. I get the message telling
me to make a change in the contacts properties folder. However, when I go
there, the option to show the Contacts as an email address book is still
greyed out.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
