The <\/span>Global Address List (GAL)<\/span><\/b> is a company wide directory automatically maintained by your IT team that contains all internal email accounts and resources. <\/span>Outlook Contacts<\/span><\/b> are your personal contacts that you create and manage. The <\/span>Address Book<\/span><\/b> in Outlook is the interface that lets you search across different contact sources, including the GAL and personal Contacts, when composing an email. Knowing these differences helps you communicate faster and maintain clean contact lists in Outlook.<\/span> <\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
