Thank you Brian for helping.
Simply when i double click the sender contact in the email I receive, it only shows a simple dialog box with the email information but no longer the complete contact infos (picture, phones, etc infos) from outlook (how it used to be). This is what I mean by broken link between the email sender information and outlook contact information of that same sender. Any ideas how to restore the relation ? Again tks! Pierre.

This is what you'll see for external addresses. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

Correct, it is the email properties dialog box with only the external adress
info. How can I have the Contacts full properties window box instead (how it used to be & how outlook normally operates) ? Tks again..

I believe the fuller contact windows appear only for MAPI-hosted contacts like the Global Address List available when using Exchange as the back end or contacts that are in your delivery location Contacts folder (i.e., that you added to an outgoing message). Outlook can't show you information for what the sender uses for the sender address when it's an external address on an incoming message. I'll have to test my Live Mail contacts when I get home. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

If they're not, you'll get the E-mail Properties dialogue. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
