LDAP addressbook/contacts



Hi guys,

At work I have to connect to an Exchange server for mail. I use Kmail mostly, but'I've tried this in Thunderbird too, just to check. In both these, I have LDAP addressbooks configured, and this works well enough, except for one thing. Consider the following:

Joe Soap <joe.soap@xxxxxxxxxxx>

for some reason, both apps use the cn to get the "Joe Soap" part. In the LDAP repo, cn is actually joe.soap. "Joe Soap" is found in displayName

Does anyone know how to make Kmail look at the displayName instead of cn?

Thanks
