Dear Eoin Verling,

I don't have Outlook to perform the tests (I'm testing Mozilla and 
Outlook Express).
I've been searching the net for a "generic" solution but it seems that 
this will not exist: Mozilla/Netscape schema is incompatible with 
Outlook Express - maybe Outlook's schema is incompatible with Outlook 
Express!
There are People at Mozilla.org creating their own LDAP schema wright now.
I believe sysadmins. will end up with different schemas and many house 
made perl scripts to conv. between them, M$ will create a very "nice" 
utility in Outlook to "migrate" from Mozilla's new (yet unfinished) 
schema to the new Exchange X.X... You should know the end of this story...

Microsoft documentations indicates that "co" should work for "country":

Good luck,
