Eep.  My bad.. I got confused by the large number of trees in my development 
directory.. I've just completed a deforestation exercise.

My pleasure. :)  We really like Horde and its friends, so I'm glad to be able 
to contribute back.

THere is one thing that I'd like to do, and I can't think about how best to do 
it yet.  I think it could be an extension of the default directory, though.  
Here's the scenario:

1. We have a master LDAP directory of all users in the Council (about 7000) - 
this is very strictly read only, as it's tied rather closely to security.
2. Each mail user has a private directory, backed by MySQL.  This is where 
their own contacts and suchlike.
3. Joe User wants to be able to browse the master directory, select a group of 
names, and create a new list in his own private directory.

At the moment, it seems that if I browse the LDAP directory, select some names, 
then try and create a list, the list is created (or at least attempted) in the 
LDAP directory, which is a no-no.

What I'd like is for the 'add new list' option to create lists in the default 
directory, regardless of where the search is taking place.

Anyone got any pointers?
