Introduction

Getting started with ldap and this mailserver we need to take 3 parts in account:

• POSTFIX
• DOVECOT
• SASLAUTHD (this can also be handled by dovecot above)

List with the variables to control the container provisioning

POSTFIX:

• LDAP_QUERY_FILTER_USER
• LDAP_QUERY_FILTER_GROUP
• LDAP_QUERY_FILTER_ALIAS
• LDAP_QUERY_FILTER_DOMAIN

SASLAUTHD:

• SASLAUTHD_LDAP_FILTER

DOVECOT:

• DOVECOT_USER_FILTER
• DOVECOT_PASS_FILTER

NOTE: This page will provide several use cases like recipes to show, how this project can be used with it's LDAP Features.

If your directory has not the postfix-book schema installed, then you must change the internal attribute handling for dovecot. For this you have to change the pass_attr and the user_attr mapping, as shown in the example below:

    - DOVECOT_PASS_ATTR=<YOUR_USER_IDENTIFYER_ATTRIBUTE>=user,<YOUR_USER_PASSWORD_ATTRIBUTE>=password
    - DOVECOT_USER_ATTR=<YOUR_USER_HOME_DIRECTORY_ATTRIBUTE>=home,<YOUR_USER_MAILSTORE_ATTRIBUTE>=mail,<YOUR_USER_MAIL_UID_ATTRIBUTE>=uid, <YOUR_USER_MAIL_GID_ATTRIBUTE>=gid

The following example illustrates this for a directory that has the qmail-schema installed and that uses uid:

      - DOVECOT_PASS_ATTRS=uid=user,userPassword=password
      - DOVECOT_USER_ATTRS=homeDirectory=home,qmailUID=uid,qmailGID=gid,mailMessageStore=mail
      - DOVECOT_PASS_FILTER=(&(objectClass=qmailUser)(uid=%u)(accountStatus=active))
      - DOVECOT_USER_FILTER=(&(objectClass=qmailUser)(uid=%u)(accountStatus=active))
