Hi Joshua!
I personally don't recommend rebuilding a Database that contains an
Exchange account. If you have problems with the rebuild and something
strange happens to your messages then those changes could synchronize to
your Exchange Server. I suggest always using Entourage --> Switch
Identity... to create a new identity, re-creating your Exchange account
and then allowing Entourage to sync again with your server.
For the problem you're describing I suggest you empty your Contacts
cache. Switch to the Contacts view then right-click or Control-click
Contacts under your Exchange account, select Folder Properties and click
the Empty button to empty the cache. You can also select the account
itself and empty the cache for all of your folders.
Hope this helps!
