Thread: Obscure Exchange Question

    Obscure Exchange Question

    So one of our clients threw a rather odd question at me regarding a problem he had with Outlook in Exchange.

    Basically he tried cutting and pasting all of his recepients into the To: field, but all the addresses turned red, then Exchange returned an error that it could not find the names.

    Unfortunately, that's all the detail I have for right now. Any clue what that's all about?

    Sounds like he is using OWA... It does that, (show red), when it doesn't find the address... and if he's copying and pasting he probably isn't getting the semi-colons in between. That makes them all run together and therefore none will be found... Tell him to use Outlook not OWA....

    They can also be configured to use a different seperator other than the default ";" - might be worth checking that too?

    Outlook doesn't show red though... It puts up the dialogue box woth your choices or tells you it simply has no ideas....
