Don't forget the column "Mode" where you put "Create" in the whole column.

Do I need the "Obj-Container" column or should I delete it? -----Original Message----- From: Jon Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 5:49 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Importing a GAL If they're treating you as custom recipients, that's how you'll want to treat them. You'll want to edit the .csv file substantially. Remove all columns except Obj-class, display name, alias name, e-mail address and whatever display fields you like to use (company, dept, phone, address, etc). Then change the Obj-class column to Remote for every row. e.g.: Obj-Class,Display Name,Alias Name,E-mail address,Obj-Container Remote,JoeSchmoe,jschmoe,SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED],/o=Jennison/ou=Jennison/c n=Recipients -----Original Message----- From: Paul Patti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 4:35 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Importing a GAL Hi Everyone, My company was acquired by a larger corp. some time back but is basically run like an individual company. We get our e-mail forwarded from corp.com to our MS Exchange Server 5.5, abc.com. I think they forward us as custom recipients. The problem is they can see us in their GAL but we can't see them in our's. What I want to do is import their GAL so my user's can just pick someones name out of the list, instead of trying to remember how to spell their name. I got them to export their GAL in a CSV file and send it to me but when I imported it, I got errors for every name in the list. Was I suppose to edit their list? Any suggestions? It looked too easy. I should of known it couldn't be that easy! _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
