In my tests, i managed to get the first instance without the class value, to work just fine. Having the "work" in <span class="type work"> shouldn't do anything. Work is not a property in vCard, it is a value, therefore it doesn't mean anything as a class value. Another option for encoding these type values is on the abbr element. <abbr class="type" title="work">Norwegian word for "work" here</abbr> As for NOT having "<span class="type">Work</span>" at all, i could easily see how that would fail in outlook. Outlook has rigid fields where it is looking for a work phone, home phone, etc. If the phone is unspecified Outlook doesn't know where to put it, so it is ignored. We can explore using a default of TYPE=voice, but unless Outlook has a specific place for that, then it might be ignored as well - certainly worth some testing. If we knew what version of Outlook was being used, then it would be easier to diagnose the issues.
