Greetings,
I am having a bit of a problem understanding the filtering stuff
for Net::LDAP. Here is my situation...
Presently we do:
# Search for user
$mesg = $ldap->search(base => $base_dn,
scope => 'sub',
filter => "(mail=$email)");
$email => the email address the incoming message is sent to (IE
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) and the filter looks for an LDAP field called "mail"
which contains the value in $email.
If that fails, we need instead to look for the email address in the LDAP
field "proxyAddresses", which is not a SINGLE field but instead has
contents which look like this:
proxyAddresses: SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED];
smtp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]; smtp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]; X400:c=US;a=
;p=FLA;o=DOH;s=scancardrequest;; RFAX:MQA Scancard Requests@;
The trick is how to construct the query so it will look for the value of
the $email string within the "proxyAddresses" LDAP field.
Any advise?
