From my outlook client, I can open another user's contact. However, when I start a new message, and click To button, I only see my own contact list. Is it possible that I can see other people's contact when I click To button? Thank you very much for your help.
 
Thanks for the reply, pat. But I can't find "Outlook Address Book" tab under this contact because it is other users' contact, not mine. I have the "outlook address book" tab under my contact properties.
 
See if this works:

1. Start with a profile that logs directly onto the other user's mailbox, not your own.

2. On the Properties dialog for the other user's Contacts folder, make sure that it's set to display in the Outlook Address Book and give it a display name other than contacts, such as Joe's Contacts.

3. Close Outlook.

4. In Control Panel | Mail, edit the *same profile* to change the mailbox from the other user's to your own. On the Advanced tab of the Exchange Server service, add the other user's mailbox as a secondary mailbox.

5. Restart Outlook, and you should see the Joe's Contacts in your Outlook Address Book as well as your own Contacts folder.
