    Hi @lalajee ,

    If you are using Azure AD Connect to sync the accounts, it could be that the UPN is not changing in Azure.

    You could follow below document to connect Azure with powershell first.
    Connect to Microsoft 365 with PowerShell - Microsoft 365 Enterprise | Microsoft Learn

    Run below command to updating the UPN after connect to Azure.

    Set-AzureADUser -ObjectId oldname@contoso.com -UserPrincipalName NewName@contoso.com  
    

    If the issue still persist. You could also try to download the address book in outlook manually.
