Many of the options in Outlook only work with POP3 and Exchange accounts.
IMAP and HTTP (hotmail) accounts don't get the full integration with
Outlook.

After furious head scratching, Ace asked:
| Yes, My account is Hotmail, I meant to say that in the first post but
| I accidently said outlook instead of Hotmail, That is why I mentioned
| the outlook connector thing being installed. I'm not sure if it is
| HTTP or not seing on how the outlook connector thing is there, I know
| it was before I installed the Add-On.
|
| I checked the area below and this is what I found:
| Tools->Options->"Preferences" tab->"E-Mail" section, E-Mail
| Options...->Advanced E-mail Options...->
| "Automatic Name Checking" and "Suggest names while completing To, Cc,
| and Bcc fields" both are checked.
