I work in a school district that uses Macintosh computers. There is presently a server - I think it is Windows based - and there MIGHT be a Exchange running on the server. The ambiguity here should give you some idea of how well things are maintained in IT land. I tried to make rules for Outlook 2011 and got a message that is shown in the attached.

I have spent some time researching this via Google. The conclusion that I have come up with is that

1. Exchange is not set up to allow me to do this

2. Global contact lists have to be set up in Exchange and must be done by the administrator.

Is this correct?
