How Do I Share My Contacts With Other Exchange Users?
Share your Contacts or share other Exchange users’ Contacts by sending a “Share my Contacts folder” invitation email from your Contacts menu in Outlook.
When sharing your Contacts with other Exchange users, the recipient of the share invitation email you send must be selected from the TO field and from there your Global Address List or your Mailbox Address List to ensure that the Exchange mailbox and Active Directory user are properly identified.
DO NOT type the email address manually or select it from the cached dropdown list as the Exchange user might not be properly identify, in which case the share invitation will fail.
