Just one note, the definition of this attribute should follow the "normal"
mail attribute in regards of syntax and matches:
attributetype ( <<local OID>> NAME 'mailType'
DESC 'SUP type for various mail address related stuff'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SUBSTR caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{256} )
Of course, one needs an unique local OID, or just take the definition from
qmail :
