The information in this article applies to:

  • The Microsoft Network versions 1.0, 1.05, 1.2, 1.3, 2.0

When you send an e-mail message, MSN, The Microsoft Network, checks the address against the Address Book. You can avoid having addresses checked by using one-off addressing, as illustrated below: 

   Format                         Example
   ------------------------------------------------------------------
   [MSN:<MSN member name>]        [MSN:TeddyBear]
   [MSNINET:<Internet address>]   [MSNINET:abc@example.microsoft.com]
Note that you must type the brackets as shown in the examples above.
