Put domain.com/user in another LDAP attribute.
That's exactly what I DON'T want to do! Otherwise I'd have to define
that mail directory for every virtual user - I want the system to do it
automatically.
Is it possible for the global /etc/maildroprc to override the value of
$HOME (prior to the initial chdir)? Or some other way of have the home
directory specified via the command-line?
See maildropfilter (man 7 maildropfilter/maildropfilter.html) for
environment variables.
FWIW the (Open)Ldap setup for Barlaeus Academy in Amsterdam adds new
virtual users where all their LDAP attributes are derived from ASCII
first-name middle name(s) last-name using a script, the first year or so
combined shell and awk, latterly Perl. Amongst these are their $HOME and
Maildir, used i.a. by authlib/maildrop. The whole process is 100%
automated and all I needed from the administration was a file with a
list of users, hundreds can be added at the same time. Same for removing
users who have left.
Best,
