Public Folder Contacts look like emails in OWA

[Mike]

Hi

I have a PubIn Exchange 2003 I have a a Public Folder for group wide
contacts and they display fine in regular Outlook 2003 but under OWA they
appear as emails not as contacts and most of the contact information is not
displayed.

How can I get this to look like a proper contacts list/display and use it in
OWA as a standard contacts address book.

Please advise.

Thanks so much for any help.

Michael

This is when you access OWA via a web browser? Are you using custom forms or
something? I've only seen this when using the OWA url to create an HTTP
account in Outlook... and it can't be helped, since Outlook's HTTP protocol
only supports messages and this trick is unsupported.

Yes its via OWA in IE6 - no custom forms are used.

Thanks for the input though.
