Section 4.5.3. of RFC 2251 states:
     In order to complete the search, the client MUST issue a new search
     operation for each SearchResultReference that is returned.

Can someone help me with the interpretation.  Does this mean that if a
client receives a SearchResultReference it MUST issue a new search
operation to the referenced server?  Or rather, if the client wishes to
complete the search it MUST (really should) issue a new search operation?

Thanks,
