OWA and searching Contacts address book

[JackBlack]

Hi, all! Using OWA to access Exchange Server 2k3 on back end.

Can't seem to locate a definite answer to this issue, so thought I'd try
here. When performing a search of the OWA address books (Global or personal
Contacts), none of the searches appear to Find any addresses in the personal
Contacts book. This is replicable across multiple accounts.

Is this a known problem, or just an Exchange setting that's gone awry?

Thanks!
Jack

OWA is Exchange, 100%. Try an Exchange group.

If the contacts are in a .pst then OWA will have no access since it is a web
view of the Exchange mailbox, not personal folders.

However, follow Russ's advice and post to an Exchange group for better
assistance.
