Hi all,

RTFMs welcome, if I've missed anything ...

are there plans to support a situation where you have an LDAP
server with entries in some people folder and all entries have
one attribute that signifies the location.

I would like to be able to configure one addressbook with
the total view and one with a filter like
l=*GERMANY*

This would also allow me to synch my palm against this partial
view.

While it seems to be possible to hack ldap URLs into gconf for
mail address completion, the config XML for the address books as
such don't seem to support this.

Any hints, plans,
TIA,

Karl.
