I have updated the patch on the Bugs pages:
http://www.dbmail.org/mantis/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0000209

It contains the fixes outlined below.  As part of the fixes, LDAP
should be included as well as SQL now.  I've moved the lowercasing
of the names as an option to misc.c, get_fqun() function.

Please note that this patch is only for the 2.0 trunk.  Paul is kindly
working on taking many of the ideas and adding the feature to 2.1.

* Special Note *
If any of you want to use my folders patch (allows [EMAIL PROTECTED])
and this domains patch at the same time.  Please patch with the domains
patch, then the folders patch, and you shouldn't get any errors, just
warnings about fuzz.  Or you can contact me for a master patch that I
have for our company.

- I'll fix the case sensitive and put it back to normal.  I would like to
point out that you do case insensitive matches on aliases. That is why I
added case insensitive to the usernames.  I'll plan on adding an option to
the dbmail.conf file to OPT which way you would like it.  That seems like it
would be the best fix for everyone.

- If I hard coded my domain in there, well then I'm just an idiot.  I must
have left it in there from testing.  I'll get that fixed right away.

- Don't get why the regex code isn't valid.  It's used in the db.c file, so
I just added the header to misc.h and used it.  That's where I stole the
idea from.

- Yup, sorry, I don't do LDAP.  I'd expect it to be pretty easy to add in
there, but I have no way to test, so I'd rather not release a patch with my
name on it that doesn't work.

You are correct, I'm aiming for the 2.0 code as our policy is not to run
non-stable releases.  I looked at the 2.1 and I like the idea where you are
going, but for now my patches will be for the 2.0 branch.  You are certainly
welcome to use any code or ideas that I do in the patches.

In one comment you said I was only looking for 1 IP to name match (if I
interpret you correctly).  I think you may be confused.  If you put in the
dbmail_domains table:

10.0.0.1  xyz.com
10.0.0.2  xyz.com
10.0.0.3  abc.com
10.0.0.4  abc.com

That will cover any connection to 10.0.0.1 and .2 to have xyz.com added to
the end of the name.  .3 and .4 connections will get abc.com.  I cover any
number of IP's to any domain.  I'll look and verify that, but as it's
running now on a couple of servers just fine, I'm not sure I understand the
problem.

A couple of things:
- you make the login case-insensitive. While I understand your requirement,
such a change would require some further discussion. Some people may very
well rely on case-sensitive usernames. We try to follow posix compliance
here, so case-sensitive is probably a requirement.
- you're using regexp code in get_fqun(). Regexp is no-go. Also your domain
(gru.net) is hard-coded in there.
- no authldap.c integration (which is logical given that your patch is aimed
at 2.0).

other than that, I like the idea very much. But like I said I will like it
better if we can integrate in into the usermap feature, by expanding that
new table with IP based mapping/acl fields.

Very much a worthy addition to the 2.1 codebase.

We need to store the client's sockaddr and pass it to the clienthandlers,
and we will also need to fix the listen calls to support a list of
addresses, rather than only one like is currently the case.

If I can make some time I'll start working on this asap. But these last
weeks before the summer holidays are always filled with production
deadlines, and exhausted children that need some extra support :-)
