Aside from Gordon's answer/suggestion being the "method of choice" and the
best way to move contacts between systems (instead of export/import) - some
questions:
#1 - Does the Excel file itself actually contain email addresses?
- if no - problem is at the source - when info was exported
- if yes - what kind of email addresses are contained?
a) SMTP (i.e. (e-mail address removed)) or
b) Exchange - if Exch - wha is the value of the
EmailAddressType field? If these are Exch
addresses - won't do you much good anyhow
on a local configuration
#2 - If the XLS file contains email addresses that are SMTP
- when importing - were the fields <manually> mapped?
(or to ask another way - are you sure the Email field was
mapped?)
- what field was the EmailAddress mapped to (should have been to
(the Email Address field specifically and not Email or
Email 2 etc)
- if SMTP addresses - nothing should be mapped to the
EmailAddressType field - auto-filled by Outlook
In short - the only reason you would not have Email addresses imported with
everything else is because there was an issue with either
a) the source data <or>
b) import mapping.
The Outlook import/export process works perfectly when used correctly
and there are no issues with the data to be imported.
