Outlook Integration

I've been trying to read up on Outlook integration but have a quick question. Everything that I have read suggests that if we integrate Outlook with RE that all contacts will be integrated to RE? I haven't installed it yet and don't really want to install it to see the integration tool.

I think that this will be a serious problem for us. Not only because of any issues created by personal emails and such but what about duplicates? What if we have a spouse's email? Normally spouses, unless actively involved, do not have their own record. Would this automatically create a record for them?

Yes - if you integrate RE & Outlook, and synchronize, all contacts will
go into the default Contacts segment in Outlook. You would then have to
find them within your 'regular' contacts list in order to put them into
a separate contacts group that you can create.
