SYMPTOMS
========
When a Microsoft Outlook user tries to log on to a mailbox, the user may receive
the following error message:
The name could not be resolved
When an Outlook user performs a "check name" procedure, the user may receive the
following error message:
The name could not be matched in the address list.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if you use Address Book views, set group accounts to a
mailbox, and assign Search permission to these groups.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this behavior:
- Give everyone search permission on the Recipients container. Because the
Recipients container contains all of the mailboxes, if you give everyone
search permission for the Recipients container, it becomes the largest
container that everyone can search.
-or-
- Make sure that the user's mailbox is part of the largest container that
everyone can search (for example, if all of the other mailboxes have a
Company name, assign the user's mailbox a Company name to ensure that the
user's mailbox is part of the Company container).
As long as the largest container that the Exchange directory service locates
contains this mailbox, the directory service finds a match for the client.
STATUS
======
This behavior is by design.
