When composing and email and using the type ahead for the address, it looks to the personal address book first, then our corporate address book, then our shared address book. Is it possible to have it look to the Corporate address book before it looks at the personal address book? I would want this for one user only for now and not company wide.
Thanks

I thought they were adding this option in ND7. I don’t have ND7 client to check it but look in the current location doc on the mail tab and check the Recipient Name Type Ahead field and see if there’s an option for Server then Local

I just checked my 7.02 client. Note there. I have Disabled, Local only, Local then Server.
Unfortunately, I can go to 8 until possibly 8.0.1 because of Domino unified Communications for Cisco (DUCS)

It was actually posted on the Domino server blog (with screenshot!), that they had added “server, then local” to 7.0.2. Still not there in 7.0.3. Don’t know what held them back. This is one of the requirements clients kept asking for for years.

A clean fresh 7.0.3 international English installation of 7.0.3 into a VMware: Database pernames.ntf (Template Version 7.03), Form “Location”, Field “NameLookupPref”, Formula for populating the field:
@If(LocationType=“3”;“Disabled|0”:“Local Only|1”;“Disabled|0”:“Local Only|1”:“Local then Server|2”)
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Subject: Here is what I see
Sorry, I have 8 installed, and I know it was in 7.0.2, I wonder if it went away in 7.0.3?
Subject: RE: Here is what I see
That’s probably good news to all who already made the switch to 8, but …
… I just extracted a couple of pernames.ntf versions from multilingual Notes Client 7.0.2 installer (C96D9ML.exe) and the English pernames.ntf from the English Domino on Linux Intel 7.0.2 package (C94QEEN.tar). I did examine the Location forms and the choices formula for field NameLookupPref.
While I’m missing the textual info for Japanese, Chinese and Korean here, the result is clear: None of those templates has the option “Server then local”.

Subject: OK, so I’m stupid …
I’ve always just been checking the field NameLookupPref, which defines the behavior for Recipient name type-ahead.
The option Server then local is actually in the field MailAddressing, used for … well, mail addressing. And indeed, it is only available, when the mail file is set to be local.
I’m with Charles here, doesn’t make too much sense for me this way. Anyway, thanks for enlightening me on this one.
Edit: Or is it just, that mail addressing is ALWAYS done server then local, if my mail file is on the server??
