The ldap-virtual settings look a little odd - but I'm rather proud
of my gimmick. You look for the mail address matching the sender
(mail = %s). Return that same address - but format it as domain/
user. Append it to /var/mail and there it is!
virtual-aliases is a simple file for me - I haven't settled on an
LDAP implentation for aliases yet I'm satisfied with. I'm using
ldap-account-manager for adminstration, and there's no explicit
provision for aliases within LAM or the base schemas used.
I just asked Pascal as well how he gets around Postfix asking for
mailacceptinggeneralid in order to allow messages to be accepted. How
do you get around that? Dovecot is working fine but I can't get
Postfix to accept messages because it keeps trying to find
mailacceptinggeneralid.
