> Okay...Why?

While  I did not develop the IMail functionality, I'd suggest that the
small number of LDAP fields that may be edited by the user is a result
of  the  historical  kludginess of the link between IMail LDAP and the
IMail  userbase.  That  kludginess is _greatly_ lessened in 8.1x LDAP,
and  the  robustness of LDAP is greatly increased, so I'd put my money
on more robust user self-management in the future.

> Is there ANY solution to consider?

The  LDAP  database is designed to to serve up a superset of the IMail
routing  and  settings  data,  but  for  now the user can't modify any
extended data from within IMail's web interface. It is, however, quite
possible  to  create  a separate web control panel (ASP/ASPX/PHP/etc.)
from  which  your  users  can  add/modify/delete  additional values to
complement the basic e-mail, phone and street address info.

So:  you  _can_  build  what  you want, but I had to first answer your
question within the constraints of the shipping product.
