Re: [Courier-imap] UID Substitution w/email Address That Starts With a Number

[Pocketmail O. <poc...@gm...>]

Actually, it is GID substitution, the UID is retained from the =
configuration file.  We use OpenLDAP.  Here are the relevant contents =
from the authldaprc file:

LDAP_AUTHBIND           0
LDAP_BASEDN             ou=3Dusers,o=3Ddomain
LDAP_BINDDN             uid=3Droot,ou=3Dadmin,o=3Ddomain
LDAP_BINDPW             password
LDAP_CLEARPW            userPassword
LDAP_CRYPTPW            userPassword
LDAP_DEFAULTDELIVERY    defaultDelivery
LDAP_DEREF              never
LDAP_DOMAIN             domain.com
LDAP_FILTER             =
(&(!(pmFlag=3Dsuspended))(!(pmFlag=3DsoftSuspend)))
LDAP_FULLNAME           pmDeviceId
LDAP_GID                mail
LDAP_GLOB_GID           mail
LDAP_GLOB_UID           pmuser
LDAP_HOMEDIR            pmHomeDirectory
LDAP_MAIL               mail
LDAP_MAILDIR            Maildir
LDAP_MAILDIRQUOTA       pmmaxspoolsize
LDAP_MAILROOT           /usr/home
LDAP_PROTOCOL_VERSION   3
LDAP_TIMEOUT            5
LDAP_TLS                0
LDAP_UID                pmuser
LDAP_URI                ldap://lb-ldap

  Post your authldaprc file and tell us about your LDAP backend =
