Description More information
The Address Book Provider requires mail add-in version 2.0.1 or later and a new profile.
  • To verify the add-in version, from Microsoft Outlook click File > Mail > Mail Help > About.
  • If you used an older version of the add-in previously, after version 2.0.1 is installed, you must create a new profile to use as the default profile. You need to re-create any custom layouts, favorite folders, and archive pointers.
For performance reasons, if a search term is fewer than three characters, the Address Book Provider returns no results.

On-premises customers can remove this limitation through Traveler server configuration. For more information, see the topic Corporate lookup settings in the Traveler documentation.
