Mail contacts or mailboxes now showing up in GAL
I came a cross an issue where mail contacts and some mailboxes where not showing up in the Global Address List. The funny thing was they showed up in in Outlook Web Access (OWA). The reason this was happening was our outlook clients were running in cached mode and were using the Offline Address Book for GAL look ups (OAB). All I had to do was just update the OAB on the exchange server and hit send and receive from the client machine.
The command you use is below Use the Exhange Management Shell (EMS) to do these
To Update a particular OAB use the below command
Update-OfflineAddressBook “Name of Address Book”
To update all OABs use the belwo command
Get-OfflineAddressBook | Update-OfflineAddressBook
