If you already have the recipient in your contact list outlook will display just the name of them recipient i.e.
TO: John Doe
Is there a way I can make it format the TO: field so it will also display the recipients full email address? i.e.
TO: John Doe<>
I have been all over the view settings and advanced options, but I can't find anything to change the formatting of the to field in new emails
