Hi


If you want your Default Address Book(and the offline address) enable, but not 
the user(s) on in, you can do two things.

If you want to hide a user, or a group, you can disable(or hide) is address in 
your Domain Controller.
In the user properties, and in the Exchange Advanced, you can hide from the 
Exchange address List.

You can list all the users that have this visible, or hidden.

1. Bring up Active Directory Users & Computers.
2. Right-click your domain name at the top, and choose Find.
3. In the Find combo box at the top, select Custom Search.
4. Click the Advanced tab.
5. Paste in the following LDAP query and then click Find Now.

(&(objectclass=user)(msExchHideFromAddressLists=TRUE))

The list of hidden mailboxes will then be displayed. Don't forget that this 
will include System Mailboxes. Be sure to leave those alone!

And  how to do this automatic for all your users, you can use the EMC console 
and use msExchHideFromAddressLists, and you also can take a look at this script 
how to do it automatic for all users.
