           Summary: Extended LDAP search functionality
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.0.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P4
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This bug is similar to bug #3873

When a non-trivial number of domains/users with distinct SpamAssassin
preferences are held in LDAP doing an entire subtree search can be expensive,
especially if the users are not indexed by __USERNAME__.  A full subree search
on the attribute on __USERNAME__ is therefore undesirable is situations where
the full DN can be inferred from e.g. the email address of the recipient.

In order to enhance functionality there are two obvious methods:
1) Introduce more wildcards as per bug #3873.  We won't go into more information
here on this here.
2) Allow a full LDAP URL to be passed as the username.  This is the desired
result of this bug as it would allow the caller of spamc to determine the
relevant URL and then pass it as the user argument.
