Not at all. You click a resolved address to start an electronic message, not
make an analog phone call. The two actions are completely unrelated.

It means Outlook recognizes it as a valid format and has all the information
it needs to pass to the Windows dialer to dial the number should you invoke
the "Call Contact" action.
