I am using item.Restrict("[EMAIL1ADDRESS] = '"+email+"' AND [FIRSTNAME]
= '"+fName+"' AND [LASTNAME] = '"+lName+"'");
and it works fine when using Outlook in English, but in German it seems
be an issue:
Message: Die Eigenschaft "EMAIL1ADDRESS],[FIRSTNAME],[LASTNAME" ist
nicht bekannt.

I guess this means that this feature does not exist.

Any ideas?

Using the English names works for all languages. Are you sure the error
message is exactly as shown? I never saw that kind of message.

Unfortunately, Find and Restrict require localized field names in search strings. An alternative would be to use AdvancedSearch. Or, try to figure out what the localized names are; they're probably close to the display names for the fields.

For a German OS and Outlook and can say for sure that it works with the
English names. I haven´t tested for all properties but never experienced any
problem. The only case I know where the localized name must be used is if
you restrict for Categories, in German that´s "Kategorien".
