hi,

I've done a little patch to courier-imap-1.3.8.1 to allow a LDAP_HOMEDIR_PATH variable in authldaprc.

This is used as a prefix to what is extracted from the ldap attribute defined in LDAP_HOMEDIR.

This let me use the qmail's attribute mailMessageStore (which I defined as the username) to be prefixed by the path to where the maildirs are located, ie:

LDAP_HOMEDIR_PATH = /gfs/mailstore/ LDAP_HOMEDIR = mailMessageStore

will allow courier-imap to read user's mail from /gfs/mailstore/<user> where <user> is from ldap's mailMessageStore attribute.

Any comments?

Thanks, Mirko Manea
