Description:

This sample Exchange Server 5.5 scripting agent automatically creates new Microsoft Outlook 2000 distribution list items in a particular contact folder from the contacts stored in the same folder. The script creates different distribution lists (DL) depending on field values in the contact items.

The DL Names are build up like:
DLName = Prefix for DL names for category X & field value of field category X
e.g. Location Berlin, Location Singapore
where "Location" is the prefix for field 1 "Berlin" and "Singapore" are the values.

Known Issues:

Don't hide the mailbox or the public folder from the Global Address List (GAL), because the Microsoft Exchange Server Scripting and Routing script will fail to run if the mailbox or the public folder is not visible in the GAL.

Microsoft Exchange Server Scripting and Routing scripts are not running synchronously. It can take up to 60 seconds before the script is fired.

Prerequisites:

Make sure that Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 with the Microsoft Event Service is installed and running properly.

Installation:

See script homepage for detailed installation process description.
