Global Distribution email lists not working

I created two Global Email Distribution lists from the Exchange Active Directory Users and Computer control.

I added members to these lists, and I created the Exchange email account.

Its been about 2 hours, and the lists are not visible from Outlook.

Is there a way to force the update to occur, or did I miss a step?

I used the email address the Distribution List created: AllEmployees

I added employee email addresses in the Members tab.

I have verified that the distribution list is not hidden from the GAL.

Tried to even email the group, and Exchange comes back and says that the name does not exist.

Woops.

It was the keyboard / chair interface problem.

The global list is under All Groups in the Outlook Show Names list.
