Have two Exchange 2003 questions:

1) Is it possible to only allow certain users to see a distribution group from the global catalog when they click on the 'To' button? It either shows up for everyone, of if you check 'hide group from exchange address lists' no one sees it. I have it restricted so only a few people can send to it, but only want them to be able to see it as well so everyone else doesn't say 'hey, why can't I use that?'.

2) I would like to use query based distribution groups but can't because I am running in mixed mode on my domain. I have four domain controllers that have been running 2003 server standard with SP2 for quite some time, but I'm scared to turn on native 2003! Everything has been running so well, and I don't want to break anything, or worse yet (after reading about it) have to rebuild my entire domain. Can anyone who has done this offer any words of advice? Query based groups would make my life easier, but not that much easier.

Many thanks.
