Windows Fax and Scan and Outlook contacts
Since you still haven't quoted the thread so we know what the actual problem
is, I'm not going to spend any time on this. -- Russ Valentine "killerb255" wrote in message ... Positive. I've also confirmed that this problem even predates Vista and Outlook 2007. I just installed a Windows XP x64 VM and Outlook 2003. I tried to use XP x64's fax client to our SBS 2008 Fax server. I can't pull up Outlook Address Book contacts in XP x64 either. So, to review: XP x86 and Outlook 2003, 2007 = works. XP x64 and Outlook 2003 = no dice (haven't tried 2007 in XP x64 yet, but I don't think that'll tell us anything relevant). Vista x86 and Outlook 2003, 2007 = works. Vista x64 and Outlook 2003, 2007 = no. Windows 7 x86 and Outlook 2007 = works. Windows 7 x64 and Outlook 2007 = no. Windows 7 x64 and Outlook 2010 x64 = no. The bottom line is that there is a problem with the Outlook Address Book communicating with the x64 fax client in NT5 AND Windows Fax & Scan in NT6!!! Since Outlook 2010 has this problem as well, I think it's more of a problem with Outlook in general than processor architecture. -- killerb255 |

Ah. I see.
Yes. I can confirm that the problem will never be fixed. Outlook stopped supporting integration with the fax module after Outlook 2003. -- Russ Valentine "killerb255" wrote in message ...

If that's the official word, then it looks like we will probably have to
nudge our clients toward using Fax Mail Transport within Outlook itself if they want Outlook Address Book integration in x64 (and not use Outlook 2010 x64, as it doesn't have Fax Mail Transport yet). So, in a nutshell, the following fax options are available on the following operating systems: Legend: 1: Native NT5 fax client with Windows Address Book 2: Native NT5 fax client with Outlook 2003, 2007, x86 2010 Address Book (if Outlook is installed) 3: Windows Fax and Scan with Windows Contacts 4: Windows Fax and Scan with Outlook 2003, 2007, x86 2010 Address Book (if Outlook is installed) 5: Fax Mail Transport (Outlook 2003, 2007, x86 2010) Operating Systems: Fax Options Available Windows XP Home, Professional, Media Center, Tablet PC x86: Options 1, 2, and 5 above Windows XP x64: Options 1 and 5 Windows Vista Home Basic and Home Premium x86 and x64: Option 5 only Windows Vista Business, Enterprise, Ultimate x86: Options 3, 4, and 5 Windows Vista Business, Enterprise, Ultimate x64: Options 3 and 5 Windows 7 Starter and Home Premium x86 and x64: Option 5 only Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, Ultimate x86: Options 3, 4, and 5 Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, Ultimate x64: Options 3 and 5 Is that about right?

Looks right to me. As a rule, the Fax Module will use whatever address book
service the user has selected as the default for the operating system. Microsoft stopped any development of fax integration with Outlook 2003 and no longer support it. Users still have the ability to add the Fax Mail Transport on their own to Outlook if they want. It was easier to leave the code that permits doing so than to remove it from versions after 2003. -- Russ Valentine "killerb255" wrote in message ...
