Contact Lists to Distribution List

S

Steve Bruce, mct

With Outlook 2003 on Exchange, a user has 4 Contact Lists in the root of
his Exchange Mailbox. The default "Contacts" is available when trying to
put addresses in a DL but the other 3 contacts lists do not show up in the
drop down lists in the Distribution List interface.

Thank You for the help.

I bought a Dell Axim X51v not knowing that Windows Mobile 5 would
*demand* that Office be installed so that the synch function would work;
this was conveniently not disclosed in the advertisements, or I would have
gone elsewhere.
I detest Outlook and use Outlook Express as my mail/news client and have
mail/news accounts as User, but not as Admin.
I was forced to install Outlook (as Admin), and then the Axim synch
function still did not work, so I uninstalled it. Since then, I get a "OE
is not your current mail client, would you like it to be" alerts on -every-
boot. Also in IE, File|Send Link and Page are grayed out, so are now
non-functional.
I used Registry Mechanic several times after the Outlook uninstall,
hoping it would find the key(s) that are doing this, but it did not.
So, how do I reset OE to be my default mail/news reader and restore the
IE File|Send Link and Page?

What if you right-click one of those other ones and go to Properties |
Outlook Address Book is "Show as E-Mail Address Book" checked?

Try reposting to microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync for an answer from
someone more knowledgeable about syncing with non-default programs.

BTW, Windows Mobile 5 does NOT insist that Office be installed. It installs
Outlook for synchronization for your appointments, tasks, etc. If you did
not want this synchronization, I would have looked to Palm rather than
Pocket PC with Windows Mobile 5.

What did you expect to find when you looked through the product
documentation? I assume you did look through what it would require and what
was included on the Axim CD, no?
