Hi again,

I was sure that nicknames are synced so I digged in and found out that
(in the file data.txt) X-EPOCSECONDNAME attribute is sent by the phone
for the nickname data. So, how do I make horde to use that? Any tips
would be really appreciated.

I believe photoType field is empty in my records (horde addressbook
doesnt mind though). But I must figure out nicknames first. Will look
into photos later.

Also, I wished there was some way to make horde detect changes in the
ldap server by another program. But perhaps that is non-trivial and we
will never see that feature?
