First of all, I confirm that nicknames are working with X-EPOCSECONDNAME
attribute. So perhaps this can be integrated into horde. Should I file a
bug for it? This is a nokia phone, so I reckon many people will fall
into this trap.


Secondly, for the phototype field, it does not look like a standard ldap
attribute. So, I get errors whenever I try to save the mime type in it.
Ldap server complains that: 

RESULT tag=103 err=17 text=phototype: attribute type undefined

I think that some schema must define it and apparently I dont have it in
mine.
