I have installed Office XP, after deleting Office 2000.
Now, when I want to sent an e-mail, and I'm looking in my
e-mail adresses, I get the following warning:
Can't reach the LDAP adresserver. But LDAP is for
companies, not for natural persons.
Who can tell me how I solve this problem?
Thanks.
Xavier.

Then you didn't remove Office 2000 completely.
Remove the LDAP and add the Outlook Address Book instead:
Go to Tools | E-mail accounts, select "View or change existing directories
or address books", and click OK. Remove the LDAP. If you don't see the OAB
in the Directories and Address Books list, click the Back button, then
select "Add a new directory or address book", then "Additional Address
Books", and add the OAB. Then keep clicking Back until you get back to the
first dialog box, and go back to the Directories and Address Books list as
you did earlier. Once the OAB appears in the list, select it and then click
Change to make sure the Contacts folder(s) you want to display are listed.
If any of them aren't listed, you'll need to enable those Contacts folders
as Outlook Address Books by right clicking the folder, selecting Properties,
clicking the Outlook Address Book tab, and checking the "Show this folder as
an E-mail address book" box. Make sure you restart Outlook after making
these changes.
