Configuring the MAPI address book
The AddressBook Viewer automatically accesses the address book application of the default
Email client software using the Messaging API (MAPI).
If the AddressBook Viewer prompts an error message when selecting the MAPI address book,
the default Email client software has not been defined in your computer, or the default Email
software does not support MAPI. In this case, set the MAPI-compliant Email software as the
default Email client. For instructions on how to set your Email application as default Email client,
refer to the documentation or online help of your Email application.
You can use the MAPI address book to copy the contacts and groups to the private address
book.
When Microsoft Outlook is used as an Email client, turn OFF the cache exchange mode before
obtaining the MAPI address.

Server 2003.
Managing the Microsoft Outlook address book
The AddressBook Viewer automatically accesses the Microsoft Outlook Express address book
to obtain the address book data. You use the MS Outlook address book to copy the contacts and
groups to the private address book. The name of this address book may differ depending on the
Email software of Microsoft in your computer.
