[Dovecot] proxy mode and ldap
Hello,
I need to use dovecot as proxy pop and imap with ldap.
in the documentation, there is an example to do this with mysql.
how to do to return (as mysql do) nodelay=y nologin=y proxy=y an idea to do this with ldap ?
Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, the dovecot proxy is not working with LDAP...

There's nothing preventing proxy from working with LDAP, just as long as those 3 fields are returned. The "y" isn't specifically needed, those fields just have to be returned with some non-empty value. So if all users are proxied, I guess something like this should work:
pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,uid=nodelay,uid=nologin,uid=proxy
ie. just take any field's value as the value for nodelay, nologin and proxy.

Hm, I still have to ask: Where do I put my "mailHost" attribut, which contains a fqhn?

Hm, I could only find "hosts" in the example dovecot-ldap.conf configuration. So, what do you mean with "host"? Shall I create a SQL database, which uses LDAP as backend to search for the "mailHost" attribute and to parse it to dovecot?

Because it's not there. :) You'll just have to return it in pass_attrs. Like:
pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,mailHost=host,uid=proxy,uid=nologin,uid=nodelay

Hi,
I tried many wrinting but without succes.
I suppose It wasn't put in the code...
But I have no more time to lookup in the code so I will use perdition.
thanks for the responses.
