are you using sun's ldap or open ldap ? courier compiled and linked fine against sun's ldap libraries, but I can't figure out how to test it. I suppose, that if it sends requests then some functionality is definitely there, but how to troubleshoot it ?
I did play around with the settings, some things are obvious, homeDirectory, crypt or clear password, but some are not. what's the mail setting for ? is that the naming attribute ? does that mean that if my naming attribute is uid: then LDAP_MAIL needs to be set to uid ? how are the filters used and what information does courier imap need to retrieve to authenticate users ? I tried all of these, but none worked. LDAP_FILTER (objectclass=shadowAccount) LDAP_FILTER (objectClass=posixAccount) LDAP_FILTER (obectClass=top) I would love to contribute to documentation, but have serious problems getting it to work in the first place.
