Description:

This sample Exchange Server 5.5 scripting agent creates Outlook contact items for each entry of the Global Address List (GAL) and adds the primary SMTP e-mail address of the GAL entry to the contact. It is especially useful if you have a handheld device, like a Palm or Windows Powered/CE, and want to synchronize the Global Address List with your handheld device. Because those devices don't support synchronizing the Exchange GAL you can use this agent to create contacts which can be synchronized with all handheld devices.

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 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.
