I’m an Outlook newbie. I’m in the process of switching to Outlook and I
need
some advice on how to best handle a couple of things on my Contacts list.

I previously used two separate programs: one for email and another for
name/address/phone. Each program had its own contact list. Despite the
duplication I found that having two separate contact lists was useful
because
the way I categorize people for email is different from the way I
categorize
them for name/address/phone.

Since Outlook 2007 has one master list of contacts I need some advice on
how
to best set things up so I can see my contacts organized by email
categories
when I’m doing email and by name/address categories when I’m looking for a
phone number or address.

I realize that it may not be possible to do exactly what I’m looking for
but
please point me in the right direction on how to best handle what I’m
trying
to accomplish. (And, sorry if I have used any incorrect terminology.)

(Is it possible to put a contact list entry into two different
categories?)

Thanks.
