Re: [evolution-patches] patch for addressbook.c

[Chris Toshok <toshok ximian com>]

i was using a mime-type sort of approach to auth types
(ldap/simple-binddn, ldap/simple-email, sasl/DIGEST, etc), so maybe
"plain/password" instead of "Password"?

also is there some way we can avoid putting knowledge of a particular
uri scheme in the front end?  The fact that there's ldap specific code
in the front end is something we need to eventually address, but we
shouldn't be adding more..  Can we get around this by passing the
book_name as an ESource property instead of as part of the uri?
