I imagine that Evolution does support LDAP, but I know for certain that Squirrelmail does. In fact, there was a good thread on this list yesterday on using Squirrelmail as a front-end for Exchange. In that thread, someone described using LDAP to bring the Exchange global address book into Squirrelmail. With a little modification, this could be applied to any LDAP server.

I don't use either Evolution or SquirrelMail and I don't know if either or both support ldap. Personally, I use mutt on a local session to check my e-mail. At home, I'm on the console, and at work I ssh into my system. On the rare occasions that I need to look at an attachment or follow a link, I fire up OE and read the message using IMAP. Mutt is a *lot* faster for me at processing list mail. procmail sorts and filters, and then mutt to quickly kill threads and reply to those that need a reply. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
