I totally agree. I'm a consultant and am only kept around as long as I keep the right people happy.
However, there is a difference between convenience and proper storage of data. I have had users complain that I deleted their contacts, when in fact the new computer needed a new NK2 file and the user never properly entered Contacts. The NK2 file is dynamic and users need to be trained to consider it a convenience. BTW, I've also had users beg me to turn it off.

You work for your company, they don’t work for you. I even go out of the way to back up my users NK2 files in case their hard drive fails. Perhaps it just our business nature, but all of our communication is external and way to scattered to make contact or a GAL for them. Our NK2 are Gold, pure Gold.

The address has remained the same, although I figured there was some sort of SID attached to the previous mailbox. Now you are required to re-enter the email and avoid using the Outlook autofill to send email to this user. I know this will eventually clear itself up, although I was curious if anyone had a trick to fix this without having each individual delete their Outlook autofill cache?
