Yeah, but again. There are certain users that will need to access their
email from outside our local networks. This would work for half of what I
would like to accomplish, the other half: "allow authentication for remote
users as long as they belong to certain LDAP group" or something similar is
what I am more interested on.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
