IU's Global Address List
The Global Address List (GAL) is a directory service within the Exchange email system. The GAL contains information for all email users, distribution groups, and Exchange resources at Indiana University.
If you configure Outlook to use your Exchange account
natively (versus accessing Exchange through an IMAP
server), the GAL is the default address book. To access it,
from the Tools menu, select Address Book.
IMAP email clients like Outlook Express (or Outlook, if you configure it to use an IMAP server) don't access the GAL by default, but they can be configured to read it using LDAP. To configure your IMAP email program to access the GAL using LDAP, follow the link for your client below:
