      Addresses
   </title>
   <summary>
      Address books can save a lot of time and typing.  You can put the
      addresses of people you write most often in them, and reuse them
      over and over.
   </summary>
   <description>
      <p>
      Address books are a great time saving feature.  Frequently used 
      addresses may be stored here. LDAP servers (Often used in companies 
      and universities to make organization-wide addresses easily available) 
      are supported as well.
      </p>
      <p>
      If your Browser supports Javascript then you might want to enable the 
      JavaScript based address book under the Options menu item.  It is a really 
      nifty little pop-up thing.  Pure HTML address lists are supported so 
      even browsers without Javascript support can use SquirrelMail without 
      any loss of function.

      Anything that will give you an accurate idea to whom this email 
      address belongs.

      Email Address
   </title>
   <description>
      <p>
      This must be the person's fully qualified email address.  Guessing here 
      just won't cut it.  There are three parts to an email address.  First is 
      the recipients identifier, such as "johnq". Next is the domain name 
      section, which could take the form "tayloru".  Last comes the top level 
      domain, which could be one of a ton of things like au, cc, us, com, org, 
      net or might look like edu.  So if we put all those together it must be 
      in the form of johnq@tayloru.edu.  If this is not correct you are likely 
      to get your mail back in the form of a bounced message.

      Info

   <description>
      <p>
      This is another field where you can put something to remind you about 
      who this person is.  This is made to be longer than the "Nick Name".
      For instance, if you meet a business contact, you could put "Met at
      the Tomatoe Symposium".

      LDAP
   </title>
   <description>
      <p>
      LDAP is a protocol for central unified storage and remote access of 
      information.  For example; a university might use LDAP as the single 
      place where all students, staff, and faculty email addresses are 
      stored and made available.  If configured to use the universities 
      LDAP server, SquirrelMail would then be able to list all campus email 
      address (along with the other address book fields if available).  
      SquirrelMail's LDAP use is truly powerful in that it <i>combines</i> 
      your local address book and the LDAP address server information to 
      present all of the information as if it was a single address book.
      </p><p>
      The LDAP setting may be configured to use any LDAP server, or disabled 
      as a feature altogether.  You will need to talk to you system
      administrator about this feature if you have specific questions.
      </p><p>
      LDAP settings affect the entire SquirrelMail system; as a result they 
      must be set up or altered by someone with administrative authority.
