Exchange 5.5 help

Is there a way to add people to your Distribution List (group) who doesn not have a mailbox and is not a recipient in your address book?

thanks

Greetings!

I am pretty sure you can. Are you allowed to add a custom recipient to your GAL?

I have more personal practice with E2K than 5.5, but I work in a group that does both for a rather large installation (70K+ users). I will find out more in the morning when I can talk to our directory guru.

Yes, the Custom recipient is the way to do this. Create a new custom recipient in your GAL with only an SMTP address. When listed they will have a little globe next to their alias.

Alternatively, just type the email address raw into one of the boxes on the RHS (assuming you're using Outlook).

Greetings!

Exactly! That was the answer I heard.
