I agree. At present, uw-imap and (IIRC this was done for 9.1) courier-imap, if you add a user to the system, their mail works (with no further mess). > By taking advantage of an LDAP environment, and using PAM, if I > create an LDAP account, virtually everything else can be done > automagically. /home directory can be created, samba shares can be > created & assigned (although I haven't gotten that far yet). Well, if you need anything besides the users [homes] share, then see the example for the profiles share. IMHO, additional shares should not be necessary for each new user (besides the [homes] share samba makes available). > > I thought it would be great to pre define (a default) user mail > structure (user/joeuser, user/joeuser/spam, user/joeuser/shared, ect).

We need to also look at what kolab does, and maybe have a default setup that supports all kolab/kontact features. I haven't had time to look at this in any more detail, and probably won't in the near future. Hopefully I will have time to finish changes for openldap soon ...
