Imagine an entry "Dave Jones <djones@company.com>":

If I search for "jones" in AddressBook using this, I get nothing back. If I search for djones, I get "Name: djones, Email: djones@company.com".

If I search (for "jones") using OWA through the web search utility (using the Display Name for searching), I get "Name: Jones, Dave, Alias: djones".

The same is true if I search for a partial name, too, like "dav". I get the result in OWA, but not in Address Book.


Any suggestions?

Ok, n00b question here but I'm getting insane.

My IT dep work with Novell (GroupWise). They did set up a Webmail and IMAP (with WebAccess) and I've finally figured out how to set up the IMAM in Mail (no ITs really want me to mess with a Mac on the Webserver... ;))

The only thing missing is the Addressbook. I did try the original hint with no luck (add a new LDAP within AB).

I keep getting (in Terminal):

# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <o=mail.mywebmail.org> with scope sub
# filter: (ou=People)
# requesting: uid
#

# search result
search: 3
result: 32 No such object
text: NDS error: no such entry (-601)


So I guess the only change (except the server name) is: o=mail.mywebmail.org, ou=People

But I still can't connect... Or it still doesn't give me anything... ARG!


So here is my question: Since I can access my mails messages (from my Webmail server) from within Mail and I can auto-complete the names when I'm sending emails, I guess there must be a way (different) to get addresses from my Webmail server instead of a LDAP listing? If so, How could I?

I must be close... thnks a lot

Try using wildcards in your search - ie enter as your search string:
*jones*

(noting that * is a wildcard character which means "match anything")

This worked for me.
