Ability to import and export contacts
Please add the ability to import and export contacts in Outlook for Mac. It'd be great if the formats that one could import and export contacts to were the same as the options on Outlook on Windows. This would make it easy to transition back and forth, particularly for folks who are switching platforms for work.

Sync Outlook Contacts to Mac Address Book
Please add the functionality to sync Outlook Contacts to the Mac Address Book. This functionality used to exist in Entourage, but is more important now than ever for compatibility with Intune Conditional Access.
I know this syncing was removed because Apple deprecated iSync.
This functionality should ideally support wiping downloaded contacts in the event that Outlook is wiped by MDM.

Enable Server side Distribution List
Outlook for Windows and Outlook Web Access support locally stored distribution lists. This is not supported by Outlook for Mac even with the new Version. Please add this functionality to be compatible!

Add "New Contact for Same Company" option
With the PC version, you can create a new contact from an existing one by select something like New Contact for Same Company and it fills in the address and company name so you can just quickly add details for that person.

Put the categories back in sidebar!
Put the categories back in the sidebar! Why on earth would you take that feature away? Now I can't view contacts or calendar by category, rendering the categories essentially useless.

Integrate Outlook Contacts with Linkedin Contacts
Now that Microsoft owns Linkedin, it would be extremely helpful if Outlook was the primary sync point for all contact information. Within the notes section, place a summary of the positions held from the Linkedin profile. Synchronizing contact information and keeping profile info in one spot would make looking up contacts with specific skills, job titles, backgrounds, companies, etc much easier. Plus, making it perform the sync in the background would help keep contacts fresh.

Turn on SharePoint Connect to Outlook
Turn on SharePoint Connect to Outlook. We have a phone book in SharePoint but I have to sign Mac users into Outlook on a windows PC that they don't have to get updates. Also doesn't work well in Virtual Machine (VMFusion)

Make initials icon color editable
Currently the circular icons with initials of your contacts are randomly assigned a colour. It would be useful if the colours could be assigned by the user so that e.g. Bob Scott who works for Yellow Cabs is yellow and Bill Smith who works for Brown's Brewery is brown, and not randomly the opposite or some other irrelevant colour. That way you could associate the right BS with the right person or company.

have the ability to disable autocomplete feature for email as it's remembering emails for all emails received even junk mail, don't need it.
Have the option to remove auto complete for emails. It's remembering all email addresses of emails received and sent and no need to have junk mail remembered! It's also duplicating email addresses and creating new contact cards even though the contact's email is in their card.
