What is that pesky "*" doing in your query filter!!!

It's a damn wildcard! I thought I would need it because when I tried to find the right parameters for this LDAP request I could not find find anything until I used this star!

Why is "proxyAddresses" the right result attribute. I would use "mail".

I don't know ?! Is it not ?! from where should I know that ?! Why do I need an email address as return anyway ?! I would say the address is already written in the message ? It makes no sense to me to return an email address.... maybe I just don't understand the whole thing and someone should tell me what I should do?!

Report problems accurately with supporting "postconf -n" output,
table definitions AND logs!

...same as above
