    I want to call BS on this. I DID NOT DELETE MY CONTACTS. OUTLOOK DID. Unless I get them back immediately, w/o jumping thru hoops, I will take my email else where. I have had had this email for 20 years - Id rather not change it.

    Hi

    I have Office 365 for Mac, a recent software update seemed to have caused issues with Outlook, one of them being all my contacts disappeared from the people folder.

    I have no ideas what a build number might be or its connection with this problem. Can you explain?
