Separate contact in different (Address Book Policy & GAL)
Hi Guys, I put GAL in place with 2 differents companies. And now I have an issue with the contacts some of them can not be seen by either of the companies any way to affect a contact to an addr...
Hi,
Once again, thank you so much. I find it hard to get an easy documentation about that.
I might look for a training or something like this.
So, we might have in the close future 4-6 very small companies and in long term something like 30.
So it would be best to have it like a Shared Mailbox/Public Folders ?
I know how shared mailbox are working and we have few of them, but how would it work with contact ?
As for Public Folders I don't know at all what it is and how it works.
Would you give me some insight ?

You can simply share the Contacts folder from a shared mailbox, users can add it to their Outlook to access the list of contact objects stored therein. Similarly for Public folders, although they're not something you should be investing in at this time: https://blog.quadrotech-it.com/blog/create-a-company-shared-contacts-folder-in-office-365/
- There is no perfect solution for this scenario, such that works across all the different clients and allows for end users to manage the contacts themselves. You need to weigh in on the pros/cons for each method.
- Hi,
I found this article saying that Microsoft has disabled sharing of contact folder in Outlook Web Access. Is this true ?
