To know if it produces a unique match requires a look-up . . . the reason for minimal length [3 in almost every client] is do the expense of a look-up to a large addressbook. Addressbooks with over a thousand entries are common. Corporate addressbooks can be much larger than that. And do user's really not know THREE characters in the name/address of who they want to send a message to? Shortening the search criteria is addressing a problem that doesn't exist. -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:[email protected]> GPG D95ED383 openSUSE, a LINUX desktop for humans who need to get work done. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
