LDAP Address Book: How to access your contacts from everywhere
What is it useful for?
You are using the NetPIM address book to store all your contacts. It works great and you are happy with the
service. You can access your contacts fom everywhere on the net.
What more could you ask ?
That your email client(Outlook, Thunderbird, OSX Mail, ...) could talk to NetPIM directly to
be able to loop up contacts when you need them!
So, how do I access my contacts from LDAP?
It is simple really. You just need to have a Premium account (which is very cheap, only 2€, and it helps
us maintain the service) and then configure your email client to talk to NetPIM. This page should give
you all the information you need to configure your client.
