We have a few users that have their phone numbers stored in thier outlook contacts as +44 1xxxx or +1 800 xxxx however they are finding that dialing via the outlook plugin is not working as they simply get the message back they have dial an incorrect number. These users all have active sync to their mobiles and travel abroad too hence their numbers being stored as +44, +1, +353, etc. Is there a way to work around this?

Surely they are always dialling out of the system though, so just create shotcodes to strip off the prefixes

amriddle01 they sync their mobile phones to outlook via active sync so the numbers are used across both the mobile phones and via outlook in the office. I think I will have to see what I can make short codes do unless anyone has any examples of these short codes.
