Hi there,

After a few months away from it, I am back at hacking Horde, IMP and
Turba.  

My problem here is that the source of contact for my current project 
will be really big (~ 100K entry in LDAP), so search results could be
_very_ big.  In my experience, performance really become a problem past
250 results.  What I would like to do is have a limit set in conf.php.
When limit is reached, the driver return only limit result and notify the
caller that result have been truncated.  search.php will then display a
warning along the line of "Your search returned too much results to
display.  Please be more specific in your search criteria."

If such a feature have any chance of being accepted by Turba maintainer,
I will code it and send a patch.

Thanks for your feedback !
