Description Dan Winship 2000-09-19 19:55:26 UTC 
There needs to be a way to set the default contacts folder for an identity,
so when sending work mail you can pick from your corporate LDAP server,
and when sending personal mail, you can pick from your local db.
Comment 1 Peter Williams 2001-07-06 19:10:31 UTC 
This sounds like a feature to me. Setting to Future.
Comment 2 aaron 2002-06-05 19:10:38 UTC 
Is this the same as a settable default for if someone clicks the "To"
button, they don't have to select the Global Address List or their
LDAP server instead of the local folders every time?
Comment 3 Not Zed 2002-07-02 07:42:54 UTC 
and/or is it the same as specifying a search path for autocompletion?
Comment 4 André Klapper 2004-09-27 17:00:37 UTC 
in evolution-2.0 there are several addressbooks possible and one can 
at least choose which address books are used for auto-completion in 
the preferences - but this does not refer to the identities said in 
the description of the bug, but it is indeed a "default contact folder 
for composer" as the summary says. ?-|  close?

Retitling
Comment 6 Dan Winship 2007-08-17 00:29:42 UTC 
Having it pick from all contact sources at once seems to work just fine for basically everyone.
