Application Development Software

Hi,

We are using JES5 with the latest outlook connector (7.2.402.1)
The user accounts have mailalternateaddress entries that consist of their initials. (e.g.hda@domain.com)
the uid is the same as their initials (ie uid=hda)

the main 'mail' attribute is made of firstname.lastname, ie 'heidi.alloos@domain.com'

In the UWC we are able to type 'hda' in the to: field or 'heidi.alloos', when we click 'send' the @domain.com is added and both mails arrive.


In the outlook connector, I need the same feature but there, i am only able to use heidi.alloos<enter>

When I try to type 'hda' , outlook says 'microsoft office outlook does not recognize 'hda', probably because this entry is - by default - nowheree to be found in the global address list

Is there a way to obtain the same result in outlook, possibly by tweaking some of the entries in the LDAP tab in the outlook connector deployment tool ? When I go to the addressbook in outlook, and perform a find based on the alias field, it does find the user, so somehow outlook should be able to find it rightaway, yes ?

kind regards,
Tom.
