Description Milan Crha 2012-06-08 09:29:28 UTC 
I just realized that this can be visible with non-cached GAL, where are done live queries on the server. With Autocompletion in composer, which produces pretty "complicated" search terms, the server can just reject searching it with MAPI_E_TOO_COMPLEX, giving user basically no result.

There should be added some fallback code to query at least something, and fine-tune results with evolution's machinery on transformed EContact-s.

for evolution-mapi;

This makes sure the two consecutive OR-s/AND-s are joined into one (consecutive means one OR being directly under another OR), thus it is a flat OR/AND. If the GAL search fails with MAPI_E_TOO_COMPLEX, then OR-restrictions are tried one after each other, some may fail, some mail succeed, but if at least one works, then the whole operation is considered working.
