I am trying to use Evolution for the first time, but don't seem to be making much progress.
After setting up my mail account (and getting my IMAP mail ok), I was trying to define an
existing LDAP server (which Thunderbird can see just fine). I define the Name,
Server, Port, and Search base. But it does not remember the search base.
I do an OK, and then look at the properties for the LDAP server and the search base
is not listed. If I click on find Possible Search Bases, it has only one, which I had
listed previously. I click on it (and it populates the Search Base field) and click OK,
but again when I check, it is not listed. Searches fail.

Cheers,
Bill
