What about an OU in AD for just contacts? They then show up in the GAL
From: Evan Brastow [mailto:ebras...@automatedemblem.com] Sent: 18 March 2009 16:58 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Dumb question - Contacts Been a while since I've made a fool of myself* and I hate to disappoint my fans, so.... We're running a pretty small environment.. Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise and maybe 20 users. For years, peoples' "address book" has consisted of just using the auto-complete in Outlook 2003 (and now Outlook 2007 in some cases.) But now, I'm growing more and more concerned about that technique and would like an easy and reliable way to have a central repository of contacts that everyone can use and update. My question is, what is everyone doing? I would assume a public folder that contains contacts and then is assigned as an address book in people's Outlook configurations, but then I've also heard that public folders don't exist in E2K7, which I may upgrade to at some point, so I'm not sure how to proceed. So, is there a third party solution that people know of and use, or is it just a public folder filled with contacts? Thanks, Evan * on this list, anyway. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ This electronic mail message and any attached files contain information intended for the exclusive use of the person(s) to whom it is addressed and may contain information that is proprietary, privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
