Using Name Completion; Using The Address Selector - Novell GROUPWISE 8 - LINUX-MAC CLIENT Manual

6.3.1 Using Name Completion

When you begin typing a name in the To, CC, or BC fields of an item you are creating, Name
Completion tries to complete the name for you. If Name Completion finds the name you are looking
for, you can stop typing. If Name Completion doesn't find it, continue typing.
Name Completion searches again after each new character you type. If Name Completion finds a
name that is close to but doesn't exactly match the one you are looking for, you can use the Up or
Down arrows to scroll to adjacent names in the Address Book.
You can configure Name Completion to search your address books in a specific order. However,
Name Completion always searches the GroupWise Address Book.

Add.

list, then click Down or Up.
5 To disable Name Completion, select the Disable Name Completion check box.

Name Completion with Duplicate Names
When using name completion it is possible that you may have two contacts of the same name. When
name completion finds two people with the same name but different e-mail address you are provided
a prompt to select the correct name to use. Additional information is provided to help you select the
correct name to use. After you make your selection that name is added to your frequent contacts and
is your default selection the next time you send an e-mail to that name.

When you are composing a new item and click the Address button on the item view toolbar, the
