Thanks Joe, it works. The problem why it didn't work before was the
way the credentials defined. I need to define it as DOMAIN\username,
and for authentication I need to use BASIC (plain), and no NTLM or
Kerberos.

The only problem now is just if someone try to lookup email address
that starts with 's', s/he will see everybody whose email starts with
's' and also [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If someone try to lookup email address that starts with 'i', then s/he
will also see the [EMAIL PROTECTED] email.

I will try to research this further.

Thanks
