Outlook’s Contact (and Journal) Icons

These are the icons you'll see when you are looking in the Contacts folder. At the end are icons Exchange server users might see in the Global Address Book (GAL).

Icons	Description
	Contact Form
	Distribution list
	Journal-enabled Contact (Tools, Options, Journal Options, Contacts that are checked) Not supported in Outlook Live.
	Custom Contact form. If you are using a custom contact form, you'll see the generic note icon with those forms in most cases, unless you assigned an icon to the form. In some cases, the generic icon is used instead of the one you selected.

Exchange users may have the following icons in the GAL:
