Hi,

Is it posible to use variables in mail_location when taken from ldap? How? I've tried

mdbox:/buzones2/'%n'/mdbox mdbox:/buzones2/"%n"/mdbox mdbox:/buzones2/%n/mdbox

but %n is never replaced by its value.

Where exactly are you trying to use this? It should get expanded.

As usual, it was me trying to be a lot more complicated than needed :)

I was thinking about storing the mail_location in an standard way in ldap, so that everybody in LDAP has something like

irisMailbox= mdbox:/buzones/%256Hn/%n/mdbox

This doesn't work, but doesn't make much sense either. (It does if used in the generic mail_location, but not in a per user value)

Now when I create a new account I calculate the mail_location and store that value in LDAP. So far so good.
