One of the my favorite features of Exchange synchronizing is access to the company GAL. Microsoft renamed this to Outlook search in WP7. To use this open the people app and tap the search glass and type the persons name. If you don’t see the contact your looking for you will see two options Search Windows Live directory and Search Outlook directory, tap Search Outlook directory. This will search your company address box and find the person you are looking for.

Auto Archive missing
Have to tried to turn on Auto-Archiving in Outlook to notice that the option is just not there? You checked on the folder, tried from the ribbon, and even went into the options menu and it is just gone! This is because of a feature in Exchange called online Archiving. This feature requires an enterprise CAL. This is set by the administrator on a per user basis. This allows for a few great benefits.
1. You can access your archive from multiple computers even Outlook Web Access!
2. Old emails are stored on the server instead of in a PST file on the computer. This saves space on your machine and incase a laptop goes missing or the hard drive fails the emails are safe on the server not lost on the machine.
