Julie This is a major problem for a lot of companies and unfortunate the official Microsoft answer is to put the fax number in an alternative field, or do not use the fax field, there is a Q article in the knowledgebase about this. Sorry I could not give you a more positive solution.

Often, when someone wants to send a message to everyone in the address book, they simply highlight the top entry, shift, and highlight the last entry and insert into the To field. Now, with the FAX entries in there, if they select everyone, they will get an NDR back for every one of those FAX entires, because we are not using that service. I'm wondering if there is a way to 1) remove those FAX entries so they do not appear in the address book, but I would still like the fax number to be visible in the contact information OR 2) send to the entire contact list without selecting every entry. The other thing that has been asked is when a message is sent out to the entire list, and someone does a reply, then in the body of the email, it shows all 500+ email addresses in the header. Is it possible to not show that information? Thanks for any help!
