[Dovecot] SASL bind for LDAP
Hi,
would it be possible to add support for SASL binds to dovecot's LDAP userdb/passdb? This would be a nice feature as it would allow the use of SASL EXTERNAL binds to a local LDAP server, thereby removing the need for storing clear-text passwords in configuration files.
Regards, Geert

Hi Timo,
thanks for your answer. Can you explain how to enable SASL binds for LDAP in beta1 and onwards? I looked through the source and found no reference to SASL. In fact, I even created a patch which I've been using since a while and seems to work quite nicely. It is attached to this email.
Regards, Geert

Right. Sorry, I missed the "SASL" part in there.

And sorry about taking so long to reply. If I don't act on the mail immediately it seems to take nowadays a long time before I start reading back my "unread" mails..
Anyway, your patch was fine and is now committed to CVS.
