I guess we have to add some sort of a complete button next to the address fields that sends the content of one address field to the server which then tries to complete the recipients based on the local address book and the LDAP directory. MS Web-Outlook has some similar functionality. Depending on the LDAP performance a live-search could also be possible.

A "complete Button" is so unAjax ;-).

IMHO it should work in a similar way as now - e.g. with some kind of "TypeAhead" mechanism. If you stop typing for a while RC should try to fetch addresses based on the input. If it finds less than X results, they should be listed.
