It's not so much the list's owner as the entry's owner, which could be another shared address book, so that would turn into:<br>"This list contains X1 contacts from address book 'Y1' that you do not have permission to view. Contact the owner (Z1) if you have questions." And so forth for X2, Y2 and Z2 etc. Where X is the number of contacts, Y is the name of the source address book and Z1 is the owner of the address book or share.<br>
<br>Peter Paul<br><br>PS: I did another test with an interesting outcome by the way: if the address added to a list is from a shared address book that another user can not see/read, then it isn't shown, but it's not removed. So the silent removal only seems to take place with addresses from private address books.<br>
