Chapter 18. Webmail
compare the text against the directory. The default is to search for entries where the name is the text you enter, which requires an
exact match. You may find it more useful to search for entries where the name contains the search text. A search with "contains"
will find names where the search text appears somewhere in the name.
After entering your text and choosing your search options, press the Start Search button to query the directory. As shown in the
screen below, your results will be returned in a new LDAP Results section of the same Contacts window. As with the section at the
top of the screen, you choose your entry from the pop-up menu (or press the Select button if your entry is displayed already) and the
information should appear in the entry box below. Assuming you entered Contacts from the link in the Compose window, you can
now insert this information into the To, Cc or Bcc lines of the Compose window.
Note that you also have the option of inserting this entry directly into your Contacts list. If you have a large company directory, you
may find this a useful way of ensuring that frequently used contacts are readily available.
Note: Unlike your local Contacts list, you cannot directly update entries that are in the company directory. Instead, those entries
must be updated by the system administrator using the Directory panel in the server manager. See the Directory section of
Chapter 10 for more information.
