Support for email client addressbook
LDAP can serve a very useful function as an address book for email clients such as Gnome Evolution and Mozilla Thunderbird. In both of these cases, however, the email clients rely on a pre-defined, custom, LDAP schema rather than a mapping to more standard schema attributes. Specifically evolution-person and mozilla-person.
It would be great of GOsa supported both of these schemas. I am think here of an plgin that would load the schemas and provide an Evolution tab and and Thunderbird tab to the user editor. It would also be important for GOsa to make an attempt to synchronise the fields that these schemas have in common with the normal user fields, thus avoiding a problem where, for example, a person's home phone has to be entered three or more times.
