XCLN: Outlook for the Macintosh Cannot Use Outlook Contacts

• Microsoft Outlook for Macintosh, Exchange Server Edition, versions 8.0, 8.1

SUMMARY

When you use Outlook for the Macintosh, address information is stored in a Personal Address Book, or .pab file. The client cannot select e-mail addresses from an Outlook Contacts folder.

Outlook for the Macintosh is not comparable feature for feature to the Windows 32-bit versions of Outlook. Outlook for the Macintosh does not recognize the custom items contained in a personal Outlook Contacts folder, nor can it display them correctly. Outlook for the Macintosh does not have the capability of using Outlook Address Books.

Use Personal Address Books to manage e-mail addresses from Outlook for the Macintosh.

MORE INFORMATION

It is also possible to use Outlook Web Access (OWA)(Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 1 or later) to allow a Macintosh to see personal Outlook Contacts folders. Using OWA allows the Macintosh user to see and address e- mail to items in a personal Outlook Contacts folder.
