Taking this to the development list.
Thanks for bringing it up, Bilgehan.

Horde supports many backends including LDAP. It is the official web client for 
the kolab groupware server, btw.

But of course it also offers its own calendar and contact list sharing backends 
(through one of a list of database servers such as oracle, postgresql, mysql, 
etc.).

Also, it offers syncml out of the box, so in connection with e.g. Funambol, you 
can have tight integration with Outlook.

Hello everyone,
Our customer want to Global Address list in outlook 2010.
Can we use LDAP integration with Qmailtoaster?
Or have you any other ideas for this situation?

Thanks for the question, Bilgehan. This capability has become a higher priority 
for me as well lately.

LDAP can of course be used for many things. As Jake alluded to, LDAP use for account 
management (in place of MySQL) is not presently implemented. I hope that with vpopmail 
5.5, an LDAP back end will be an option. We'll have to wait and see how that goes. The 
OpenLDAP authentication module for vpopmail v5.5 is "nearing completion" 
according to the developer, as of last Friday. I hope to help test it when it becomes 
available. Any other testers will be welcomed I'm sure.

Regarding using LDAP for address books (contact information), that's another 
matter (different data being stored). The only intersection of this with QMT 
would be with Client apps, which is presently just squirrelmail-toaster. I 
don't know about an LDAP address book for SM, but I expect there probably is a 
SM addon for that. Does anyone here know know about how SM implements such a 
thing?

Are there any Horde users here that are familiar with how Horde implements 
global/shared address books?

AFA a Global Address list for Outlook is concerned, that would be outside of 
QMT's scope. However, I would very much like to see a Global Address Book 
package (based on OpenLDAP) which could be used with any number of client 
programs. Sort of an Address Book Server package. Perhaps this could be 
released as part of QTP. Ideas?
