Contacts not appearing in the Global Address list

[tpulley]

When I create a contact it will not show up in the global address list. I can however do an LDAP search and find the entry.

I do the search for example in OWA and search for the contact. I can send an email to this contact.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Try right clicking Contacts, properties, outlook address book,and check show this folder as an e-mail address book

Contacts created in your local address list will not show up in the GAL.

The contacts were created on the server not on the clients.


BTW, this did resolve another issue I had, where a user couldn't see their contacts when they tried to send an email.

Thanks...

I checked a nother mail server, and it works perfectly. I am trying to figure out what the difference is....

Anyone seen this problem? Any ideas?

Did you mail enable the contact(s)?

yeah they were when they were created.

I can (from outlook client) select from the ALL contacts list and see them. But they are not showing up in the GAL. I have another site that does though.....
