Hi everyone,
I wonder how to share more than one contacts list using Outlook 2003 ? I
have main contacts list called CONTACTS and just created 2nd called CLIENTS
and want to share this one too but it's not visible for the rest of the
users in the network. Is there some special trick or so ? Does someone has
some idea ?

To access a shared folder that isn't one of the folders listed on the File |
Open | Other User's Folder dialog, the mailbox owner needs to grant Reviewer
permission to the root of the mailbox, as well as appropriate permission on
the folder.

The user who needs access then goes into Tools | E-mail Accounts or Tools |
Services (depending on the Outlook version), brings up the properties for
the Exchange Server service, and on the Advanced tab, adds the mailbox.

For more information on folder permissions, with how-to screen shots, see
