Outlook for Mac has 2 address lists in Address Book: Accountname Directory: Offline cached copy of the address list. Due to the nature of the Exchange server, this might not show the recent changes made to the Global Address List; Directory LDAP: Allows to perform online Global Address list lookups. Workaround: Outlook 2011 SP1 (With autodiscover record in place) will download an offline address book. It will be listed as ACCOUNTNAME Directory. This is a 24-hour old copy of the global address list. Once in place, you can delete the directory service settings.
