Hello
I which you an happy new year. I would like to thank all of you for the
great job that is done in the Debops project. It provides a nice way to
manage a lot of classic/needed services.
I am currently setting up my mail service using the LDAP directory
('slapd', 'postfix', 'postldap' and 'postconf' roles).
Following are my
comments/questions.
1. postldap role seems to have outdated default parameters
----------------------------------------------------------
I am the feeling that the documentation and the default settings in
'postldap' role do not correspond to the 'mailservice' schema setup by
'slapd' role. For example, the schema recommends to not use the 'mail'
attribute for delivery. However, in 'postldap' the query filter are:
query_filter: '(&
(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)
(|
(mail=%s)
(mailAlias=%s)
)
(|
(authorizedService=all)
(authorizedService=mail:receive)
)
)'
I manage to have a working system by correcting 'mail' with
'mailAddress' and 'mailAlias' with 'mailAlternateAddress'.
Am I right? I can propose a merge request if needed.
2. How to have several recipient for an address?
------------------------------------------------
The previous setup is working nicely if the address corresponds to a
unique final account, either as main address 'mailAddress' or a
secondary one 'mailAlternateAddress'.
However, if I want a unique address delivers to several accounts, it is
not possible. Indeed, 'mailAlternateAddress' rely on the 'mail'
attribute that is unique. I know how to setup it for local account with
'etc_aliases' role, but how to have it in the LDAP directory?
Thanks a lot for your help and suggestions.
All the best
Thomas
