I cannot use vCard format for my contact list on Outlook 2016.

When I send emails to share my contact list by adding it on my email, the recipient can not open it well.

The contact list I sent with vCard format becomes .msg format when it arrives to the recipient.

This is really a big problem for me to do my job, is there anyone who knows about this problem and helps me?

    Hi @James Lee

    How did you add the vCard to email? According to my test, it works well, here are the steps:

    1. Click New Email.
    2. Click Insert > Business Card.
    3. Click Other Business Cards. The Insert Business Card dialog box appears and shows all your contacts in the Contacts folder. Scroll through the list of contacts and, holding down the Ctrl key, click the contacts you want to select them, and then click OK.

    If your situation is different from mine, please share your specific steps so I can better understand your scenario.
