(1) Ldap server location: My authldaprc file has a parameter LDAP_URI which references a secure ldap server by default, any openXchange config documents use an LDAP_SERVER field for this purpose. Initially, I tried

LDAP_URI ldap://127.0.0.1

currently I have set LDAP_SERVER localhost LDAP_PORT 389

Is the LDAP_SERVER deprecrated?

Yes, use LDAP_URI

Is authlib / authldap ok with unencrypted localhost ldap connections?

No reason why it wouldn't.

(2) Ldap password: There are two parameters in the file which specify the ldap password: LDAP_BINDPW LDAP_CLEARPW

For me, both these are asking for the exact same info, which is ok, so long as I'm getting it right. Am I?

No. LDAP_BINDW is the password that authlib itself binds to the LDAP server with. LDAP_CLEARW is the LDAP attribute that holds unencrypted mail account passwords. This is what the mail account login password is compared against.
