<title>Using LDAP servers</title>
<para>
- LDAP servers are used to share address books across networks. They are often available in companies. Enabling an LDAP server in Claws Mail is quite straight forward. Choose <quote>Book/New LDAP server</quote> in the <quote>Book</quote> menu, then choose a name for this LDAP server. Enter the hostname of the server (<emphasis>e.g. <quote>ldap.sylpheed.org</quote></emphasis>), its port, if necessary (<emphasis>the standard port is 389</emphasis>). You can then either fill in the <quote>Search Base</quote> yourself if you know what to use, or click on <quote>Check Server</quote> to have Claws Mail attempt to guess it automatically. If your server requires authentication, you can set it in the <quote>Extended</quote> tab.

When you close this window by clicking <quote>Ok</quote>, the server appears in the address book's sources list on the left-hand side. When selecting the server, you will see an empty list of contacts at the right, which can be surprising at first. This is to avoid doing full searches on the server without you explicitly asking for it. You can now search for names using the <quote>Lookup</quote> form at the bottom of this list. If you want a full listing, just search for <quote>*</quote>.

<title>History of Claws Mail</title>
<para>
- Claws Mail has existed since April 2001. The primary goal of Claws Mail was to be a test-bed for potential features of Sylpheed (<ulink url="http://sylpheed.good-day.net/">http://sylpheed.good-day.net/</ulink>), so that new features could be tested thoroughly without compromising Sylpheed's stability. Claws Mail developers regularly synchronised their codebase with Sylpheed's codebase, and Sylpheed's author, Hiroyuki Yamamoto, took back the new features he liked once they were stabilised.

- Originally both Sylpheed and Claws Mail were based on GTK1. The work on the GTK2 versions started in early 2003, and the first modern (GTK2-based) Claws Mail was released in March 2005. Since about this time, Sylpheed and Claws Mail' goals started to diverge more, and Claws Mail became an entity of its own.
