I am having trouble sending email through outlook. I synced my iphone through outlook, but the problem is when i click on mail and hit new for a new email- i cannot select an email address when i search "to" or try typing in a contacts name to auto fill.

However, when i click on the "contacts" tab there are contacts and email addresses, but when i click on mail and try to send a email to a contact there are no email addresses listed for any of my contacts... this is a real pain, and I'm starting to get really annoyed with vista.
 
Don't know if this is the exact cause of the problem that you are experiencing....but if you have never emailed the contact, then the name will not populate as you type it in the first time. After you email them once, it will cache the name so you will no longer have the issue.

Have you tried typing in a name from your contacts and hitting the 'Check Names' button. This should put the email address in for you.
