This would be better asked in the Exchange Group. However, I believe
the answer is no. There are 2 options that I can think of though:
- Have your Exchange Administrator create a distribution list.
- Or, Create a Public Folder of a Contact type, then create the
distribution list there. Then follow the instructions below to make
it accessible to all persons you give permissions to.
A Public Folder Contact type is ideal to use as an Outlook Address
Book.
- Set permissions on the Contact Public Folder (PF) to
Author if you want everyone to add their own info but not
screw up anyone else's
Reviewer if you want one guy to be the keeper
- Then have everyone add this PF to their own Outlook Address
Book. That way the contacts will appear in their own address book
and they won't need to visit the folder each time they want to use it.
- Right click on the Contact PF
- Select Properties
- Select the Outlook Address Book tab
- Activate the "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book"

Is it possible to move a Contacts distribution list to the Global Address
Book?
Permissions, etc are not a prohibiting factor here; just knowledge.
