Outlook Express and Eudora bahave differently..

Title: Outlook Express and Eudora bahave differently..

I have set up a slapd server with 100 or so entries in it.  The typical entry looks like this:

dn: cn=Joseph (Yossie) Silverman, dc=mrstock
cn: Joseph (Yossie) Silverman

Title: xxx

ou: xx

l: xxxxxxxx

telephoneNumber: xxx-xxx-xxxx

mobile: xxx-xxx-xxxx
mail: yossie@mrstock.com

When I use Eudora 4.3 address book to query against it with * as the search string, I get all the entries back

When I use Outlook Express 5.02 address book to query against it with * as the search string (both default filter and simple filter), I get NO results back

I ran slapd with -d 511 and got the following out of it:

Eudora 4.3

        conn=0 op=1 SRCH base="" scope=2 filter="(|(cn=*))"

Outlook Express 5.02:

        conn=1 op=1 SRCH base="" scope=2 filter="(|(mail=*)(|(cn=*)(|(sn=*)(givenname=*))))"

Outlook Express 5.02 with simple filter:

        conn=0 op=1 SRCH base="" scope=2 filter="(|(mail=*)(|(cn=*)))"

What to do?

Thanks - Yossie

P.s. I am using a Mac as the client but the same thing happens when I do this from a PC.

P.p.s. Netscape Mail does return all entries from a * query.  It has the added feature or auto-completing a To/CC/BCC field automatically.  However, my company has made a strategic choice to go with Outlook.
