I found a lot of resistance to Thunderbird due to its inability to 
support url links in emails.  It is this reason that I really cannot use 
it either.

Firebird suffers similarly with mailto: links.

I can show entries in our openldap address book with an *, but not just 
browsing - I have to query.  Evolution will show up to the query limit 
by default.

Kind regards
Xander
