You did not look hard enough ;-) Here is a nice how-to that I found. http://www.cerritoslug.org/tutorials/qmail-ldap The author uses Open LDAP -account info Courier IMAP -mail storage QMAIL -similar to postfix > My goal is to have no (unix) users on my server but to contain the users > postfix/courier should recognize via LDAP attributes. This works fine for > Postfix, but as soon as maildrop/courier kicks in I can't find documentation > about setting it up so that all my (virtual) users reside in my LDAP > database and mail gets distributed to their appropriate Maildirs in > /var/spool/mail/$USER/Maildir The above document should work with Postfix considering both are designed very similar. I am currently using Postfix. I will tell you how it works in a week. > As far as I understand the documentation this would be possible by setting > up a userdb - alas, that does definitely lack the beauty of managing only > the LDAP objects without having to fiddle at more than one place. I don't understand your question here. Here is how I am doing it. 1. Generate User Accounts in LDAP directory. I wrote some simple scripts to do this. My LDAP structure. myorg.edu +People (Searchable Addressbook) +Accounts (Mail users/ passwords) 2. Generate Mail Directories in Courier IMAP Easy I think. 3. Setup Postfix. _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
