Suggested Contacts and Auto-complete in Outlook 2010

I've had questions like this several times during the last few weeks: "I upgraded to Outlook 2010. I heard that the NK2 file is no longer being used and was replaced by Suggested Contacts. My NK2 file was renamed to profile_name.nk2.old. When I start typing names in Outlook, addresses come up so everything appears to be working well, except that I don't see any of my contacts from the NK2 file in the Suggested Contacts folder. Why didn't my contacts from the NK2 file correctly import into Suggested Contacts folder? "

Error: 5102. Server. Maximum request length exceeded

We’re seeing a rash of “Error: 5102. Server. Maximum request length exceeded” errors when using the Outlook Hotmail Connector. This specific error is caused by trying to send a file larger than 4MB using the connector. The problem behind the error should be fixed soon, but until then, if you get the error, move the message from your Outbox to a folder in a local pst - the file needs to be moved from the mailbox so Outlook doesn't attempt to sync it with the server. This should get rid of the error and allow the Outlook Connector to work again.

If you need to send larger attachments, use the web interface.

If a sending a large message is not the cause, look in the Sync Issues folder (use Ctrl+6 to switch to the folder list) and check the Synchronization Log messages for text indicating which messages are the problem. You can also check the Local Failures folder and other folders in your mailbox for large messages. Move the messages out of the Outlook Connector account.
