Thank you Russel , I am definitely gonna try it when I get the chance
cause your setup is almost identical to ours :)

Thanx all for the answers :)
I added strsalloc.o at both sections in Makefile and it worked ok
(for the compilation) . I keep getting an error 111 though using this
method (test pop connection) ..
I ve also tried the Felipe's implementation , but I can't pass the
authentication , think there is something that has to do with ldap
config , will look more in this later ..
Thank you again :)
I too use dovecot for imap and simply configure dovecot to auth
against the ldap server. I do not use the patch you listed, I use
stock qmail-1.0.3 with qmail-ldap-1.03-20060201.patch. I use a similar
method to Felipe, configuring dovecot to auth directly against LDAP
and configuring qmail to use auth_smtp. If you can login using qmail,
then there's no reason you shouldn't be able to log in with dovecot,
it may just be a case of making sure you have the correct password
scheme configured for dovecot.
