Your right, you can still send to a hidden mailbox, but when you compose a message and try to select a hidden user out of the GAL they are not listed in the GAL, which if the way it is suppose to be. I'm trying to figure out a way for it to not show in the GAL but to show up in the Containers underneath the GAL or some other solution to hide the mailbox at the root of the GAL but not everywhere.

Any ideas on how to do this? If I hide from address book it hides it from GAL and any containers contained within I have seen many posts on this from other newgroups, but no replies. The big man wants it to where people can send to consultants by drilling into containers. He doesn't want people being able to send to consultants accidently when users often select the entire GAL and send email to people who shouldn't of received it. One idea was to create a contacts folder on Public Folders but that wasn't acceptable.
