I did not notice the Select button at the right-hand end of the To: window. I see now that I can indeed insert an entry from my Personal Contacts in that way. It is just that the autofill feature, which I had been relying on, does not seem to be working any more. Also, if I go to KMail=>Tools=>Address Book, I never get any response after entering a name in the Search window. This seems to be completely non-functional. Surprisingly, if I click on Import=>Import from LDAP server I am able to search through my LDAP directory. And I am able to use names from the LDAP directory in KMail, after pressing on the Select button and choosing Search Directory Service. In summary, Kontact does seem just usable with KMail, but the lack of proper documentation and the non-functioning of the Search mechanism in KAddressBook, make it less than perfect. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
