Remarks

A Contacts Address Book is an Address Book that contains all the contact items in a Contacts folder that have either an e-mail address or a fax number. Each entry in a Contacts Address Book is associated with either an e-mail address or a fax number. Since a contact item can have up to three e-mail addresses and three fax numbers, a contact item can be represented by up to six entries in the corresponding Contacts Address Book.

The purpose of a Contacts Address Book is to support users addressing e-mail messages to contacts in a Contacts folder. The Contacts Address Book provider that Outlook supports is contab32.dll.

The CONTAB_ENTRYID structure supports a subset of the information that is present in the underlying MAPI Contact message. It identifies the Contact message that a particular Contacts Address Book entry is associated with.
