How do I create shared contact lists in Exchange 2010

I have a server with Exchange 2010 on it.

I would like to make shared contact lists for the users, and I would like a selection of users to maintain the lists via shared folders in outlook.
The contacts must be visible in "to" in outlook, and I don't have a clue how to do this.

Any idea?

You could use public folders

Yes, I was planning to use public folders, but I havent treaded a lot into public folders in general, and I wish there was a "Create public folder wizard" that could solve this easily.... :)

What I am looking for, is a nice step-by-step to do exactly what I want, which is to create this contact list public folder, set the right permissions in the right places and make it available to outlook contacts.

Hi Ormerodrutter,

thank you for that input.

Yes, we are the admins of the domain.
I have used exchange for ages, but really not used public folders much.

Is it also possible to make the contact lists available through outlook, so that when I send an email I can choose from the shared contact list?
