Re: Outlook express (ITS#662)

This belongs to openldap-software@openldap.org

Last time I checked, outlook (97) and outlook express (4.xx) search for
strings beginning by what you enter. Example, if I search for 'timm' the
search will look like
'(|(cn=timm*)(mail=timm*)(surname=timm*)(givenname=timm*))' and my
record will show up. If I enter 'immo', the search will look like
'(|(cn=immo*)(mail=immo*)(surname=immo*)(givenname=immo*))' and my
record won't show up.
