I guess that what i really need to know is if it's possible to use
multiple libraries at the same time (LDAP and regex in this case).
Unfortunately perdition doesn't currently support that.
However, it shouldn't be too difficult to modify perdition in order to
allow it to check LDAP and them a regex. The main work would be in renaming
some functions as currently popmap modules all provide the same symbols. Or
if things were to be done in a more generic way, use a slightly more
sophisticated module loading mechanism.
We had this requirement when we needed to migrate
mailboxes for entire
domains on different mail systems onto ours.
We managed to achieve this by using the following in the Perdition
configuration:
query_key \\U,+default@\\d
So if the user doesn't exist in LDAP, it would try to look for
"+default@<domain>".
We would then have an LDAP record something along these lines:
dn: uid=+default@<domain>, ...
uid: +default@<domain>
cn: +default@<domain>
mailLocalAddress: +default@<domain>
mailHost:<old-server>
Thank you for your input.
I already suspected that i would have to use LDAP to be able to validate
the user, but i'd like it to be a last resort effort.
As for my concerns regarding IMAP. Can you confirm that i will be able
to apply those rules both for POP and IMAP? I'm asking because the
mapping i tried with popmap only worked for POP access.
