Re: [Evolution] LDAP lookups

["Scott DeMeyer" <scott demeyer psp wa gov>]

It's not just you. I also have the same problem. It happens about every 3rd time
I try to lookup an LDAP contact from our Exchange server. Really quite annoying.
I thought it was due to the 100,000+ address on our global but maybe not?
