Global Address List

[Goldcoastie2001]

How do I get a group to appear in the default Global Address List.

I simply want to create an 'All Staff' group that all my users can access.

Any ideas?

This would have to be done by the Exchange/Network Administrator depending
on versions of Server/Exchange software.

I am the Administrator.

How do you do it?

If you go into Active Directory Users and Computers || Right click Users and
select New || Group || Make sure that you select Distribution || Give it a
name || Note as you will mail enable it you might want to make the name
short and sweet || NEXT || Check the box to give it an exchange email
address || Finish || Once it is created then go into it Properties and use
the Members button to add the users you wish to include.

Thats basically what I had done (didnt give it an email address however)
(have changed that now) however when i go to write a new email and when I
select TO it does not appear in the global address list, just all my user
names, not the group name????

Are you using Outlook 2003 in cached mode, if you take it out of cached mode
does the group appear! To remove cached mode (in Outlook) right click your
mailbox select Properties || Advanced || Advanced

I have taken the cached mode off - but the list still does not appear?

Does it show in the All Groups list

Yes it does, however there is nothing in this list.

However, I do want it to appear under the Global Address List.
