[Dovecot] Ldap Proxy

[Harrison Metzger]

Ok. I got it to work. I changed this:

pass_attrs =
uid=user,cn=proxy,BCMailDovecotProxyHost=host,gidNumber=nologin,uidNumber=nodelay

By adding nologin and nodelay it seems to work. Also, I have to have each
map to a unique ldap field or it won't like that. (If people have less than
4 entries in their ldap entry it may actually be a problem then. haha) The
static fields would be really nice, Once redhat decides to put 1.1 in their
repository it will wind up on the machine. Until then, this way seems to
work. Thanks for your help.
