Everytime I click on the To: button to pick a contact from my address book,
my computer will start some kind of process that I can not override. then
after some 12-15 seconds, I get an error dialog that I must acknowledge
before I can do anything else. The error dialog says unable to contact LDAP
server. I have just my one computer here at home connected to my router. How
do I disable this LDAP server thing, and just call up my own address book
without having to go through this error message thing each and every time I
want to send an e-mail?
 
So, tell us how or why you have selected an LDAP as your address service
provider if you don't use one. Outlook doesn't do this all by itself.

Click to expand...

Click Tools>E-mail Accounts>View ir change existing directories or address
book>Next. Select the LDAP service if you don't use it, and click Remove.
Stop and start Outlook.
