The process is the same for every version. You need to work with **only one
profile**, not two. Summary:
1) Create profile that logs onto other mailbox.
2) Set distinctive address book name for contacts folder.
3) Shut down Outlook.
4) Modify ***the same profile as in #1*** to now point to your own mailbox.
5) Modify that same profile to add the other mailbox as a secondary mailbox.
6) Start Outlook
If you don't see your own contacts after Step 6, check the properties of
that Contacts folder.
