All contacts from conatcts folders in a particular store?
All address entries from all address book containers in the address book?
The two are different as you can have a contacts folder in a store that does
not show up in the address book ("Show in teh address book" checkbox is nto
checked). Plus you can have other AB providers (such as GAL) that have
nothign to do with contact messages in a message store.

3. That is just how name resolution is implemeted. MAPI loops through all
AB
providers in the search path (remember you can have multiple independent
providers) and stops at the very first one that returns success or an
ambiguous name. In case of an ambiguous name, it performs PR_ANR
restriciton
on that container and uses the returned entries to display the "Ambiguous
name" dialog.

How can I find all contacts with particular name (fom all folders) ?
