About the Address Book

The Address Book includes three components: your own personal address book, the NIMS system-wide address book, and a public directory. You can search for a name or address in any of these sources, then select a person or group to send a message to. By default, the search is done only on the personal and system-wide address books.

Personal Address Book
The personal address book includes only those addresses you personally add to it.

System-Wide Address Book
The system-wide address book includes all WebMail users with a Privacy setting other than Unlisted in their Preferences.

Public Directory
The public directory could point to any public LDAP directory service. Your system administrator may have set a default. You can configure a public LDAP directory service of your own choice in Preferences.

Note: Some features described in WebMail help may not be provided on your system.
