Are you intending to create them as Mail User, instead of User Mailbox? Mail User is intended for people that don't have internal e-mail addresses, so an External address is needed. i.e. a contractor that's working for you temporarily. Create a Mail User account for them, they show up in the GAL, but the mail goes to their external address.
