    I have Exchange 2003 and my users have different type droid devices connected.  The synchronization is peroformed successfully except tyhat the e-mail addresses are not mapped properly.Droid devices have multiple e-mail addresses and I am noticing that the contact email(s) and the Contact email(s) display are mapped to e-mail addresses on the device.  So there are duplicate e-mail addresses listed in different e-mail fields.  For example: email: john.doe@domain.com and Display as: John Doe (jihn.doe@domain.com).  When this data is syched to the mobile device, the e-mail address is mapped to the e-mail address and the Display as is mapped to anothe e-mail field and is listed as: john.doe@domain.com <John Doe>

    Both e-mail addresses work when selected, but it is just cconfusingto some people and wanted to know if there is a way  to fix or change thefield mapping.

    Thanks

    Hi Bilal,

    How did  you sync the contact to Android devices? From ActveSync or a cable?

    Can you find the same duplicated email addresses in Outlook or OWA?

    thanks.

    That seems like an Adroid issue, I'd update to 3.2 which I believe is the latest and check again.

    Also, test using Windows mobile, if there;s no issue there, then your issue is with Android.

    Hi Fiona_Liao,

    The Sychronization is done using activesync, corporate sync (on the droids).  It is not really duplicates.  In outlook, you have an e-mail address and a display address (composed of e-mail and full name), so when there arsynched to the phone, e-mail1 is sent to e-mail on the phone and display is seen as an e-mail and sent to e-mail 2.  You can not have an empty display name, outlook automatically fills in for you.  Is there a way to select which fields are mapped?

    In gmail, there is no display name so everything is mapped correctly, email to email.

    The device is at the latest.  As I stated before, it is a data mapping and wanted to know if there is a way to change the mapping.

    Thanks,

    The mapping seems to be on the android than exchange.  A simple test would be to test in a Windows Phone. Test with an iPhone too.

    Hi Bilal,

    Thanks for your update.

    We cannot specify how contacts are synced. I agree with Sukh to test with other kind of mobile devices to isolate the fault. Your understanding would be appreciated.
