Hi guys,

When searching for Chinese names in the "to:" field under Thunderbird, I get an 
assertion failing in slapd. I see that this is because the "mail" attribute in 
the default schema is of type "IA5 String" but the Chinese name that I'm 
searching for falls outside the character set.

The work around I have is to modify the "mail" attributetype in the core.schema 
from:

  attributetype ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3
    NAME ( 'mail' 'rfc822Mailbox' )
    DESC 'RFC1274: RFC822 Mailbox'
    EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
    SUBSTR caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch
    SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{256} )

to:

  attributetype ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3
    NAME ( 'mail' 'rfc822Mailbox' )
    DESC 'RFC1274: RFC822 Mailbox'
    EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
    SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
    SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15{256} )

Can anyone see a problem with the above, or is there a better way of 
accomplishing this?

Thanks

Alfie
