This feature availability depends on your plan.
Hide from Address Book is an option that allows the Administrator to hide an object from the Address Book.
Note: If an object is hidden from the address book, the mailbox will not be visible in the Global Address List. Names that are not visible in the address book cannot be found by services or features that rely on the Global AddressList, such as the Auto-complete featureand Outlook Profile Helper.
