SYMPTOMS
When you connect to a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server and you are in an Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003 environment, extra entries may appear in the LDAP search results. The entries are public folder entries.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Microsoft Outlook client searches the Active Directory for any object that returns an e-mail address. All public folders that have an alias return an address and are added to the Global Address List.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
