At first I was planning on sticking to trusted Cyrus. Cyrus is the only IMAP server I know which has a full PHP library to admin the thing. I was planning on writing a plugin for LAM myself but lack of time did hold me back. I was also thinking about the desirability of writing a specific Cyrus plugin. A generic plugin for IMAP servers based on calling external shellscripts which can be adapted per flavor of IMAP-server did sound too as an option.
So, Dovecot does support LDAP. Thanks mr. Melnik for providing a dovecot-ldap.conf. But will this work with the schema used by samba/lam ? Or will I need another schema and if so which? How and where do you store your mailboxes? Thanks in advance, Olaf Vasiliy P. Melnik wrote: > I us PLAIN-text passwords in ldap.
