Automatically Import Skype Contacts in Outlook

Before you get started, you'll need to transfer all your Skype contacts into Outlook. Using the import feature Look2Skype will automatically create contact entries for each of your Skype Contacts containing their Skype Name, and any other details they have used when creating their account.

Define Skype Name for Contacts

If you want to set up a Skype Name manually for your existing contacts, Look2Skype automatically adds a Skype Name field to each contact. Once you have defined the Skype Name then you can start to make direct Skype calls with your contacts from both your contact list and your inbox.

Instant Access via Skype to your contacts from your Outlook Address Book

Once you've installed Skype, Look2Skype gives you to instant access to your Skype features such as Skype IP Telephony, SkypeOut (calls from Skype to landlines), and Skype Instant Messaging.

Simplified SkypeOut, defaulted local dialing

SkypeOut gives you the prospect of cheap calls to landlines; but you need to add International dialing codes to all your existing phone numbers. Look2Skype enhances this by allowing you set a default local country code which Look2Skype will use on all numbers that don't have an existing International Dialing code.

Simplify communications......Reply Via Skype to e-mails

Look2Skype also allows you to respond to e-mails using Skype Instant Message and Voice calls. If the sender of your e-mail has been setup in your contact list with both their e-mail and their Skype Name then you can quickly go from a slow e-mail conversation to a real-time voice or instant message conversation.

Access it all from the context menu

All these features can also be accessed by clicking the right mouse button.
