Does your employer provide your BlackBerry Storm? Do you use Outlook or
Lotus Notes on your desktop machine at work? If you answer yes to both of
these questions, this section is for you.
BlackBerry Contacts allows you to search for people in your organization,
basically through this software:
✓ Microsoft Exchange (for Outlook)
✓ IBM Domino (for Notes)
✓ Novell GroupWise
Exchange, Domino, and GroupWise serve the same purposes: namely, to
facilitate e-mail delivery in a corporate environment and to enable access to a
database of names.
For you techies out there, these databases are called Global Address Lists
(GAL) in Exchange, Notes Address Books in Domino, and GroupWise Address
Books in GroupWise.
If you want to search for someone in your organization through a database of
names, simply follow these steps:
1. On the Home screen, touch-press the Contacts icon.
