Microsoft Outlook

version? platform?

URL handling

URL without non-standard TYPE param seems to be ignored.

ADR handling

Appears to not support the post-office-box sub-property of ADR.

Windows Address Book (WAB)

Version 6.00.X Win98

ADR

If you do NOT specify TYPE=HOME,WORK,... then no address information is imported

TEL

If you do NOT specify TYPE=HOME,WORK,... then no address information is imported

PHOTO

Does not support Images

Apple Address Book

On both OSX.3 and OSX.4

organization vs. individual

For organization contact info, sets the FN and ORG to the name of the organization and N to empty.

Also treats imported vCards like that as organization contact info cards visibly in the UI.
