Hi Christoph,

Sorry I missed the fact that you are running on Linux. No,
the Mozilla Outlook and Outlook Express Address Books are
*only* accessible on Windows. This is because we use the
MAPI and WAB interfaces to access these address books and
they are WIN only. This is consistent with the Mozilla
Import Feature. 

Just one small correction to the above prefs if you were on
Windows. The uri entry should be:

user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OE.uri", "moz-aboutlookdirectory://oe/");

John.
