Outlook 2010 using Windows XP - sync specific contact groups only

Question

Hi -
I have an iPhone 4, and I sync it with specific contact groups (work and personal) in Outlook on two different PCs (work and personal) - which used to work. 
I'm now usings iTunes 10.2.2.14 and it doesn't on my PC with XP which has Outlook 2010. Instead of syncing my specific folders, it tries to sync ALL of my contacts. 
In iTunes, I click on Info < check the "Sync Contacts with" box < choose "Outlook < choose "Selected groups" < check the boxes for my specific folders (do not check the "Add contacts created outside of groups on this iPhone to:" box) < click apply and it starts to sync
You're asked if you want to merge or replace, I click merge, and then it asks me if I want to change my 407 contacts - that's my entire contact list!  I don't want that in this computer's outlook ... I only want to sync the folders that I selected. 
Note that this process does, however, work using the same iTunes version on my PC with Windows 7 and Outlook 2003.
Help!  (and thank you)

Exchange 2013 doesn't support MAPI RPC, it has to use RPC over HTTPS, a.k.a., Outlook Anywhere (or POP or IMAP, which are inferior) so it sounds like everything is working as designed.
The password being rejected for Outlook Anywhere suggests that you have a configuration error.  Run this command:
Get-OutlookProvider -identity EXPR | FL CertificatePrincipalName
and make sure that this matches the CN of your certificate.  XP has a problem when it doesn't.  You can change it with Set-OutlookProvider if need be.
