Thanks, Greg. I am trying to create custom address lists in our Office 365 Enterprise account. I can run the New-AddressList cmdlet to create the address list and the address list gets created. However there are no records in it even though there are some records that meet the criteria. As I understand it I need to run the Update-AddressList cmdlet in order for the custom address list to get populated. However when I run the Update-AddressList cmdlet I can an error message saying essentially that the Update-AddressList cmdlet is not recognized as a valid cmdlet. Make sense?

Bill, can you try and describe more about what you are trying to do, and what you are doing to accomplish it, and what happens when you do?

Unfortunately per Microsoft Office 365 Tech Support some of these things are not supported in Office 365 Enterprise accounts, even those accounts that have been completely upgraded to 2013. Specifically custom Address Lists are "not a supported feature." I haven't been able to get them to work and Office 365 Tech Support does "not have any resources to go back on if the directions online do not work for you." VERY frustrating because having a GAL with a 1000 entries and not being able to divide it up is a problem for us. Our goal was to move 10 offices into Office 365 by next year but now we may have to significantly scale back our plans.

Riyaz, the two have nothing in common technically speaking - you have ABP's on prem, and you will have ABP's in Exchange Online - there is no sync or knowledge at either end of the other - so sure, you can do it in Hybrid, and with 2010 on-prem, but you will need to configure it at each end, independently.

We have a customer that is looking to leverage the new GAL segmentation feature in Office 365.

They want use Address Book Policies to segment users on-premises from Exchange Online users, the tenant would be in Office 365 for Education.

1. Can this be done in a Hybrid deployment?

2. If so, does the Hybrid (on-premises) Server require being on Exchange 2013 or will it also work with a an Exchange 2010 server?

This functionality might be possible for 2007/2010 on-premises with the 3rd-Party-Agent messageconcept ExSBR for certain but not all scenarios. Unfortunately Exchange 2007/2010 might send out the messages in TNEF instead of *whatever configured for the remote domain*.

I just installed exchange 2013 on windows server 2012. I am unable to install ABP Routing Agent. As soon as I run this command in EMS I get an error.

Install-TransportAgent -Name "ABP Routing Agent" -TransportAgentFactory "Microsoft.Exchange.Transport.Agent.AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent.AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgentFactory" -AssemblyPath $env:ExchangeInstallPath\TransportRoles\agents\AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent\Microsoft.Exchagne.Transport.Agent.AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent.dll

The Transport Agent assembly file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\\TransportRoles\agents\AddressBookPol

icyRoutingAgent\Microsoft.Exchagne.Transport.Agent.AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent.dll" doesn't exist.

Parameter name: AssemblyPath

+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Install-TransportAgent], ArgumentException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : 34326F6,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.AgentTasks.InstallTransportAgent

+ PSComputerName : mail.domain.com

I explored C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\TransportRoles\agents\ there's no directory named as AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent and no such file. Is my exchange installation missing this file ? or I need to download this file from internet ?
