  2. In the Address Books list, select the address book you want to search.

    For GroupWise, you can choose the GroupWise address book, the Frequent Contacts address book, or a personal address book. For LDAP, you can choose any LDAP address books your GroupWise system administrator has defined.

    To search for a specific entry, use the search conditions fields to define the Address Book fields and information you want to search.

    GroupWise WebAccess supports the * (asterisk) and ? (question mark) wildcards. When searching a field, you can use * to represent multiple characters and ? to represent one character. For example, if you define a "Last Name contains s?n" condition, the search returns all entries whose last names contain S and N separated by one character (Sanders, Johannson, Larsen, and so forth).

    The HTML Address Book and LDAP Address Book allow you to enter two search conditions. To do so, click the Advanced Search button.

  4. Click Search Address Book (or Search) to display a list of entries that match your search conditions.

    If you decide to send an item to a user you found, you can select the user; click To, CC, or BC to indicate the recipient type; then click Mail to open a new item.
