Hi Claudio, didn't mean that this should be the standard configuration for qmail-ldap, clearly this would cause trouble to most installations. I just thought that having this as a documented compile _option_ it would save a lot of people time and trouble to get this type of functionality which is really neat with just this little patch. Reading the list this topic is probably often needed in "front line qmail-ldap setup" which is supposed to drop unknown ldap-users at smtp level and then forward mail to further mail processing stations rather than feeding all the crap through the rest of the mail setup. Most people (like me) are probably comfortable compiling the system with different options set but still have the trust to use "stock qmail-ldap" rather than patching third person patches without enough C knowledge/expertise/experience to be sure not to break something severe. Wouldn't it be possible to add this type of feature as compile or configuration option? It looks like a really tiny change in the code (that's why I went with the patch). Just my $.02 Keep up the great work with qmail-ldap, love it! Manfred
