Subject: Distribution list not being displayed in Global

Back from the world of public accounting.  Actually, I'm still there, but my 
role has changed a bit...

I've recently assumed network administration duties for a Windows SBS 2003 
deployment with Exchange (2003) installed.  I last worked with Exchange at 
version 2000 over two years ago.

As I recall, when one adds a distribution group through the Exchange provided 
Active Directory Users and Computers that group should automatically be 
displayed in the Global Address List, unless you've selected otherwise.  
Unfortunately that I don't see the group, and I had to shoehorn the user into 
the GAL, and don't recall the steps I took to do it.  Also, when I create new 
users, or groups, no email addresses appear in the Email addresses tab.  As I 
recall this isn't normal behavior.  And to provide complete information, I did 
select Universal and I did select Distribution for the scope and type, 
respectively.  A quick google search didn't really stand out at me, but I may 
not be searching for the correct thing, if so, I'll take my punishment like a 
man! :-)

Mainly, I'm looking for a sanity check or  a possible idea of what/where to 
look to fix this.  Also, I need a good book to pickup for Exchange 2003 
specifically.  The previous admin purchased all the books personally and 
removed them when he left.  That won't be the case with me, but it's another 
story altogether.  It also wouldn't suprise me if this is a messed up 
configuration, since I've seen plenty of messed up configurations since 
assuming the responsibility.

Thanks,
Jonathan S. Link
