Hey guys, I've been lurking on the list for a while and I have a question about Courier. We're looking to implement a new mail system and want to move away from a commerical solution towards an open source SMTP + LDAP + IMAP solution. Currently, we have an SMTP + LDAP setup, but we're looking at possible IMAP solutions.
We looked at Cyrus, but we found that it didn't really let us do the setup as we'd like. We'd like to have SMTP deliver to a particular MailDir as specifed by the mailMessageStore value in LDAP (below is a sample LDAP entry). dn: [EMAIL PROTECTED],dc=dev2,dc=test,dc=spam objectClass: top objectClass: MailAccount accountStatus: ACTIVE uid: 1000 userName: michaeln mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailMessageStore: m.sub/i.sub/michaeln.macnt/ mailHost: dev2.test.spam clearPassword: password2 userPassword:: cGFzc3dvcmQy That part works fine, but Cyrus doesn't seem to let us pass such a value to the IMAP/POP3 daemon. Cyrus seems to want us to use LMTP and the Cyrus delivery agent to deliver mail to the appropriate location (as somehow determined by Cyrus). The problem here is that it's somewhat commom for users to want to change their username and in the future we want to make sure that it's easy to migrate a user's mail. If we could make it such that such a procedure would only involve updating LDAP, that'd be ideal (e.g. we would update the mailHost and mailMessageStore values to move a user to a MailDir on a different server etc.) Before I jump into Courier, can you guys tell me if Courier can do what I want above?
