It is working (kinda) in both applications for me. Dumb luck finding out though. The solution: I must search for the addresses. Searching with "contact contains" and then filling in a single space gives me (all of the) contacts!! So also in ibook's addressbook application. A very stupid and non-intuitive workaround to what I see as a serious Evolution shortcoming. Evolution doesn't seem to get any stabler recently either... the version with Mandriva 2007.1 is very unstable, crashing at least once a day.
