It is overly complex.
The entire idea is, that each user can have several mail
addresses.
I have such a setup with dovecot.
For each *mailbox* (not system user) I have a separate LDAP entry with its own
password and multiple aliases.
In my case I'm not using the uidNumber attribute because my dovecot
installation simply uses vmail:vmail for user/group ownership of the mailbox
files.
But of course you could also add the 'posixAccount' object class to your
mailbox entries.
Ciao, Michael.
I'm aware of the vmail:vmail setup. Unfortunately this is not an option
for this mail server implementation. Also I don't want to add
'posixAccount' to my mailbox entries - it would overload it, since it
also requires lots of additional unused attributes. I would rather add
mailUid and mailGid to my schema to keep it as low weight as possible.
But it would still not make me happy since this mailUid and mailGid
would be exactly the very same as in uidNumber of the user the ou=mail
container with the accounts belongs to. Is there maybe a way of
implementing a symbloic link? Something like
mailUid === Internal Symbolic Link to ===>
uidNumber,userid=User-1,ou=people,dc=netocean,dc=local
Thanks
