hello.
there's a file called maildropldap.config, and you have to compile maildrop with ldap support. the sample file that comes with the distro is quite simplistic, and i've been using this setup here to handle my e-mail account for all the mailing lists i am a member of. there are fields : maildir_attr = homedirectory_attr = for my case, both resolve to homeDirectory. so far i'm pretty pleased with my ldap-postfix-maildrop-courier setup. courier nga lang is very picky about the imap clients it supports. sam varshavchik(author of courier and maildrop), is very much a stickler for the rfcs, preferring to support only rfc-compliant clients, although you could compile courier with --enable-client-workarounds or something like that. check the docu na lang. i had to enable this since i use netscape 6.1 and it's imap client implementation daw is broken(according to sam). --vince Federico Sevilla III wrote: > >The thing with using Maildrop is that it's recipes are a whee bit >different from Procmail's.
