Postfix does not have any support for filtering the entries expanded
via special_result_attribute DN values. This is semantically questionable,
in any case, such member objects are supposed to be no less part of the
group than a string-valued multi-valued "memberaddress" list.
To get more complex behaviour, either use ldap_uri valued groups (dynamic
groups) or use a target attribute (say "maildrop") that is absent in
disabled objects:
enabled user:
mail: primary_addr...@example.com
mailalternateaddress: primary_addr...@example.com
mailalternateaddress: secondary_addr...@example.com
maildrop: mboxaddr...@mailhub.example.com
disabled user:
mail: primary_addr...@example.com
mailalternateaddress: primary_addr...@example.com
mailalternateaddress: secondary_addr...@example.com
Postfix group table:
query_filter = mail=%s
special_result_attribute = memberdn
terminal_result_attribute = maildrop
