SUMMARY

Consider the following scenario. You create a query-based distribution group (QDG) in a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based domain. You use Microsoft Entourage 2004 for Mac to view the All Groups address list. In this scenario, the QDG does not appear in the All Groups address list.

Note The All Groups address list displays all the security and distribution groups.

MORE INFORMATION

QDG is a special kind of group, the membership of QDG will not be displayed even if you try to view a QDG in Microsoft Outlook or in Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access (OWA). Therefore, the QDG does not appear in the All Groups address list in Entourage 2004 for Mac.

To view the QDG in Entourage 2004 for Mac, select the top level of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) account that is connected correctly to the global catalog server. For example, view the QDG in global address list (GAL). This will display the QDG as expected in Entourage 2004 for Mac, and the members of the QDG will receive the message that is sent to the QDG.
