        Hi,
it's because Evolution is using particular attributes to be shown in the
contact preview, and that yours don't have "enough" of them. The
Type=cell is OK, it is only that, but fo the Type=Home and Type=Work is
also required subtype "Voice" (or "Fax") to be considered. And it's the
thing what the editing dialog does for you, it adds these to the
contacts entry. It can be similar with other entries.
        Bye,
