Just tried to create a new contacts folder in Outlook manually...
Microsoft Outlook
Cannot create the folder. Calendar, task, and contact folders cannot be created in Exchange ActiveSync accounts.
Click to expand...

When I set up Outlook I just took the defaults... just tried setting up the account again an no option to change.

*head desk*
 
Just tried to add a folder manually from within Outlook again ...
Microsoft Outlook
This account or directory type already exists and cannot be specified twice
Click to expand...

The test account I set up is an "Exchange ActiveSync" version.
Tried to create a new account and did not get option to change it for outlook.com address.

There is an option to create a "mobile directory" for the contacts folder, but using that may screw up someones actual contacts as I'll have to distribute this code eventually.
