Description Tim Lee 2002-10-24 19:01:59 UTC 
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:
Since the GAL is in some ways now the default Contacts folder for Exchange
users, there should be a better error message in the "Select Contacts from
Addressbook" dialog if the GAL has not been configured ( IE. no server name
entered ). Currently some text flashes below the the Address list in the
Dialog, but it's virtually unreadable.

Expected Results:
An error message along the lines of "There is no GAL server defined in
settings" would be nice.
