An OU is an Organizational Unit. I simply create an OU for these contacts for my own organizational purposes. There is no technical reason to do this. You can create the contacts wherever you would like in the AD structure _____ From: Administrator [mailto:Administrator@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, July 15, 2004 6:02 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: RE: [exchangelist] RE: adding contacts Please if u could give me a more dtailed explanation of how to go about adding them through an OU. regards, Paul. _____ From: David Johnson [mailto:djohnson@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thu 7/15/2004 6:25 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: adding contacts http://www.MSExchange.org/ I just went through this myself and found that 2003 is a completely different point of view from 5.5. Everything is in AD now. What I did was to create a new OU to hold the contacts (just for organizational purposes). In the new OU, you create new contacts and assign the addresses to them. _____ From: Administrator [mailto:Administrator@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 2004 5:23 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: adding contacts Hey,how can I add global contact address in my exchange 2003 system manager,having quite abit of trouble there.
