Office 365 Contact Sharing

Today we had a client raise an issue with contact sharing internally. The error:

The issue is caused by outlook auto-complete adding the names as you start to type and then selecting them from the drop down, the fix below uses the recipient’s name from the global address book
1. In the Sharing invitation, select the To button. The Select names window opens.
2. In the Address, select Global Address List.
3. In the Search box, type the recipient’s name.
4. Select the recipient to whom you want to send the invitation, and then select To.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each internal Exchange recipient to whom you want to send the invitation.
6. Select OK, and then select Send.
