I have a question for the wise people of the world who use DBMail!
OpenLDAP has an SQL backend. DBMail talks to PostgreSQL and MySQL.
Would there be any point in getting DBMail to understand the schema
OpenLDAP uses (for performance mainly I'd guess).
So, you'd like to use LDAP authentication, but then bypass that and use
the SQL-backend of the LDAP-server directly?
If this is what your asking then I would say: no there is no point. I'd
say, use the LDAP-API for LDAP and SQL for SQL. (I could point out the
reasons why, but I figure there pretty obvious to everyone).
