I ahve tried to add the following lines in ~/evolution/config.xmldb :

<section path="/Addressbook/Completion">
  <entry name="uri" type="string" 
value="ldap://myldap.server.com:389/c=us??sub"/>
</section>

Problem is that when I start evolution
a) it doesn't work
b) when I look at the config.xmldb the lines I added have disappeared

Any idea why I can't make it work?

Thanks

Laurent

PS: I have also tried to add these lines in 
~/evolution/private/config.xmldb but it doesn't work either.
