It's definitely not a configuration issue.



Even after applying the fix mentioned in #7357, the search function 
does not look in all address book.

In my case, the autocompletion only finds entries from localldap, but 
not localsql and favourites.



I can supply further information if required.

This is the same as bug #7357.  The fix applied there also fixes the 
autocompletion in IMP.  However, what Michael stated is true.  If you 
set the addressbooks preference (and make sure a previously stored 
user preference isn't overriding it), it will also fix this problem.

The user value is not set, i.e. it is empty.

I tested with a pristine account without any custom configurations and 
it didn't work either.



It worked with horde 3.1 and imp 4.1.

So there is a regression.

No you didn't.  Defining a default value in imp's prefs.php is 
irrelevant - what is relevant is what the value is for the user you 
are testing with.  Default values are overwritten by a user's value.   
And what you are describing is precisely what happens in this case.

Have you read my bug report?

I've defined the address books which to search for in imp

You need to define which addressbook(s) to search in IMP's preferences.

I've defined three addressbooks in turba/conf/sources.php (in that order)

localsql (sql based private addressbook)

localldap (ldap based, readonly addressbook)

favourites (sql based)



If I compose a new message in IMP, the autocompletion only looks in my 
localsql addressbook



In imp/config/prefs.php I've set

$_prefs['search_sources'] = array(

     'value' => "localldap\tlocalsql\tfavourites",

     'locked' => false,

     'shared' => false,

     'type' => 'implicit');



And in turba/config/prefs.php

  $_prefs['addressbooks'] = array(

     'value' => '', <- all addressbook should be used/displayed

     'locked' => false,

     'shared' => false,

     'type' => 'implicit',

);





If I change the order in turba/conf/sources.php (e.g. make localldap 
the first one), then new first addressbook is searched.



So it seems that instead of querieng all available addressbooks only 
the first one in turba/conf/sources.php is used
