Hi,
I'm running SBS 2003 and Outlook 2003.
From Outlook Web Access I can create distribution lists,
but cannot see or search for them in my contacts or
global address book once they are saved. I CAN see and
search successfully for individual contacts.
I can type the distribution list name in the "To:" field
of a new email message and it sends fine, but only if I
have the name written exactly perfect as it can't find
the distribution lists in the contacts folder. OWA
doesn't underline the list name or confirm in any way
that it's found the list in my contacts. This will be a
problem once I have so many address lists that I can't
remember exactly the name of each one.
HOWEVER:
I created a distribution list in Outlook called TESTLIST.
If I'm in OWA and click on New->Distribution List and put
only T (or the first few letters of "TESTLIST") into
the "Listname:" field and then click the "send mail to
list" icon on the same window, the CHECK NAMES dialogue
box opens and says "Microsoft OWA found more than one T"
and below that is anyone in my contact list with a "T" in
their name/email. INTERESTINGLY, TESTLIST IS PRESENT IN
THIS WINDOW.
Everything seems to work as it should from Outlook
directly on my network.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Jeff
