If I hit the To: button, the Offline Global Address List is default. If I click on Global Address List, I Outlook spins its wheels, and says, "The address list cannot be displayed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
I am online however, so why is this happening? I discovered this because when I add a new user, they are not available in the GAL for quite some time in the offline GAL. I want to instead query the GAL to find the new users I just got done adding, but I cannot, and receive the error described.
Thanks for any help!
