Default Outlook Web Access - Export Contacts?!

Thanks for your prompt response. To clarify, you mean it's not
possible to export a Contact file from OWA.


Correct. OWA has no export or import capability.

I should have been more clear: when I tried exporting to a .pst, that
was not from OWA.


Unlike OWA, which interfaces only with the Exchange server and does not know
about the client PC, the local Outlook client resides on the PC and can do
things there that OWA cannot, like see PSTs and manipulate them.

If you have 1,000 addresses in your Exchange mailbox and you want to use
them to create holiday cards, Outlook Web Access is not the interface you
want to use. Use Office Outlook installed on your PC.

Note: you should never export to or import from a PST. There's no need and
you lose data in the process. If you want to copy what's in a PST, use
Windows Explorer while Outlook is closed to make a copy of the PST. To use
in Outlook the data in a PST, just open it in Outlook.
