Retrieve all addresses from personal directory

Is there any way to retrieve all of the email addresses that a user has sent/recieved emails to/from?

These are the addresses that popup (autocomplete) when you start typing in an address into the "to" field of a new email.

Any tips on where to start to look for this data?

Ive checked the ldap directory but couldnt find anything other than users in the system directory.

Is it something to do with the cda server?

That information is stored by the client, not the server. The server is not even aware of this. In Outlook it is stored in the user's profile directory on his PC, and in SWA In the mailbox itself somewhere as configuration information.

If the user is using SWA, then the address are stored somewhere in that users folder on the server ( like /var/opt/scalix/XX/s/users/g0003a), corect? Where in the user's folder?

Wrong. It's in the IMAP #Scalix namespace/IMAP Oddpost mailbox folder, that's in the data directory. omcontain'll show you where, but it's not like a text file you can just read.

Go to backup - you've already run an omscan in fix mode and an omtidyu, so you've been deleting stuff.
