Thanks.

Your suggestion works, but requires users to login with their email address
instead of their user name. This can be confusing.

Here's an example LDIF: (relevant parts only)

dn: uid=joe,ou=accounts,dc=domain,dc=com
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
uid: joe
mailMessageStore: j/o/joe/

In this case, we have the uid of "joe" which he's used to, and the email
address of "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".

Can we login as "joe" but have the email address (and return address) of
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?
