mailAlternateAddress and LDAP

Hi there,

Currently I'm thinking about to upgrade from DBmail 2 to DBmail 3 RC1
using a new Server. I'm using SOGo. Postfix, DBmail with an LDAP Backend.
Now I'm asking me what I have to fill in the DBmail.conf for the attribute
mailAlternateAddress to just use alternate adresses per each account.

example:

BIND_PW = topsecret
SCOPE = SubTree
USER_OBJECTCLASS = top,account,dbmailUser
FORW_OBJECTCLASS = top,account,dbmailForwardingAddress
CN_STRING = uid
FIELD_PASSWD = userPassword
FIELD_UID = dbmailUID
FIELD_NID = uidNumber
MIN_NID = 10000
MAX_NID = 15000
FIELD_CID = dbmailGID
MIN_CID = 10000
MAX_CID = 15000
FIELD_MAIL = mail
FIELD_QUOTA = mailQuota
FIELD_FWDTARGET = mailForwardingAddress

Could I write some like this?

FIELD_MAIL = mail,mailAlternateAddress

Or what should be better to define it?

best regards
Darko Hojnik

That should work just fine.

The fields listed in the FIELD_MAIL attribute are OR-ed:

(|(mail=%s)(mailAlternateAddress=%s))

Hello Paul,

Do you mean "FIELD_MAIL = (|(mail=%s)(mailAlternateAddress=%s))" ?

And it will works with dbmail-users to administrate Users in LDAP or do I
need a LDAP Editor such like Apache Directory Studio? Currently I've a
different configuration where couldn't use dbmail-users. Something to have
in the Shell I think it would be more comfortable. Well I will try that
Setup this week

kind regards

No! comma separated fields in FIELD_MAIL are converted to an OR-ed query.

I never use dbmail-users to administer LDAP, and I don't recommend it.
Though it will work for simple setups, LDAP is simply too flexible and
complex. So: Use whatever fits your LDAP design. I use a framework of
shell scripts as well.
