Please
Anyone has any idea ?

Maybe somethign is wrong  with my indexes ?
I only have index objectClass eq.

Maybe I should define  more of them ?

Or maybe it's impossible to search by part of e-mail address ?

Maybe I should have records of type inetOrgPerson, to make such search ?
But Sendmail requires inetLocalMailRecipient type, so I have no choice.
