Hi,

a client requested that the address search in IMP/DIMP work like in  
other mail clients, i.e. that only contacts are returned that match  
the typed characters at the beginning of the first name, last name, or  
email address. Currently we do regular substring matching. Since the  
searching happens in Turba, we would need to change it there.
I personally find our current method more intuitive, but giving that  
our application seems to be the only one implementing this search,  
most people seem to think different. What's your opinion?

Jan.
