So is HumanKind working on an expanded LDAP server for
IMAIL?  That would be interesting.

If I can't add a user using an LDAP command, I guess I'd
need to do it via ODBC.  I know someone posted here
a while ago asking if anyone has successfully set up
IMAIL to pull user data from a machine running SQL 
Server via ODBC.  But I never saw any replies.

Has anyone ever been able to do this?  I'd be happy
to purchase a DLL if someone has put one together.

Ron and Jeff, thank you for the information.
