SMTP address in XP

[Deb]

Hi,

I'm using Outlook XP connected to Exchange 5.5. When I add a user to my
contact list that is a member of the GAL from Exchange, the type of email
address appears as EX. I want to change this to SMTP (like I could in
2000). The reason being, I want to be able to send my contact list to
recipients who are not connected to the Exchange 5.5 GAL. When I send them
the list with "EX" type of addresses, they can't read them because they are
not connected to the Exchange server. Any way of doing this in XP?

Thanks in advance,
Deb

You can't change that native behavior. See http://www.slipstick.com/exs/portagal.htm for ways to create a copy of the GAL you can use with POP mailers.
