[turba] AddressBook Schemas

Hi Adam,
  But I want the same schema to be used by those software clients. So, if you
create your address in Turba then they are accessible in Outlook, Lotes,
whatever. And vice-versa.
I know the adding of the schema isn't difficult. But without an agreed-upon
schema how does one access the same attributes by all of these different clients?

Cheers,
Harry
