Okay. Let's cut to the chase and get some things done.
I can't stand this dialog box anymore:
If you know there is no contact for this person, give me the simple "add contact" button here. This is so dumb, I can't even put words around it.
So, I will resort to the thing I know works: Greed.
The first MSFT employee who sends me an updated version of Outlook that fixes this problem, gets a new Porsche. That's right, a brand new Porsche. It's a looker and I promise it will turn heads. I have it right here on my desk, err, downstairs in the garage.
The bonus? I'm covering the taxes. That's right, if this baby tosses you into a higher tax bracket, I'm there for you.
You can even time bomb the code release until the car arrives in the mail, err, dropped off.
Get to work and win the car.
How about a tag we use to show of those little things who drive us nuts?
Ever little thing which annoys the hell out of us (like my "don't steal the focus" thing - a big Outlook issue also) and just flood the technoratis of this world with it ...

The dialoh box I see when I send an email to an unknown address has the title - Check Names and has a button to add a new contact. I am using Outlook 2003 SP1.

I never see this dialog box. How do you get it?

You receive a "Could not find a contact with this e-mail address" error message when you use the "Look Up Contact" feature in Outlook 2003
