Default Contacts address book corrupted!

1.When the client goes to send a new mail message.
2.Click the To: button
3.Selects Contacts fromt the address book options
4.Selects a user in the contacts list
5.Types a message to the user
6.Clicks send
7.Message comes back to the inbox. "Message
undeliverable"

At the same time we can type the exact same E-Mail address
into the To: line "same address as the corresponding
contacts user" and the message will send just fine. This
fails with any user that we try from the contacts
folder. When we send fromt the global address book
everything works perfectly? Any ideas....

That would suggest that your mail addresses in the Contacts Folder are
incorrect or not valid.
Did you look?

Underlined.
That means that Outlook recognizes them as valid addresses.

Hi Ryan and Russ!
I'm having the same problem as Ryan. We just reinstalled exchange 2003
after our hard drive crashed and now whenever anyone tries to send an email
using the "To:" contacts list, it gets bounced back.

We've already followed all of the suggestions so far, are there any other
ideas you can think of?
