That is a sub site, so here you go:
Q: "I created a public folder to hold contacts, then used Outlook Web
Access (OWA) to create contacts in that folder. When I create a message
in OWA and put the name of a contact from my public folder into the To
box, OWA won't resolve the name so that I can send the message. Can you
tell me how to have OWA resolve the name?"

A: When you use the desktop Outlook client, you explicitly tell Outlook
that you want to use a certain Contacts folder for address resolution by
selecting the Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book check box on
the Outlook Address Book tab of the folder's Properties dialog box. OWA,
however, doesn't let you designate a folder for resolving addresses. OWA
resolves names only with the Global Address List (GAL) and your mailbox
Contacts folder.

To use a public-folder contact to address a message, you need to paste
the address from the contact into your mail message. The same is true
for a contact in any contacts folder in your mailbox other than the
default Contacts folder.

Conversation: Public Address Books in OWA
Subject: [windows2000] Public Address Books in OWA


Any tips on how to incorporate address books that are in public folders
into OWA?  Our main address book is located in public folders, but I
haven't found any way to be able to list this with the Global Address
List and the individual users' lists in OWA.  Any clues??
