Thanks, Jan! The one place I didn't look!
Last question... is it possible to create default address book
selections for all users, in prefs.php? I found the sourceselect
option, and edited as shown, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm not
sure that this is the right place for it, though.
// address book selection widget
$_prefs['sourceselect'] = array(
'value'=> "Our Employees\nMy Address Book\nPublic Address Book",
'locked' => false,
'shared' => false,
'type' => 'special');
