Hi!

I'm in the middle of migrating our mail server to a new configuration, and I've run across a stumbling block. I'm use Postfix for my MTA, and I'm storing the virtual user information in a LDAP database.

All user mail is supposed to be delivered to /var/mail/<domain>/<username>. My problem is how to tell maildrop to use the information in LDAP properly.

In Postfix, I can define the mail root as /var/mail, and I can use the LDAP filter to return a result of "/<domain>/<user>/" by just processing the mail field of "user@domain". So, at least for Postfix, I don't have to actually store each user's mail folder in the LDAP database - it gets generated from the mail address and the defined root folder.

Can I do this using Maildrop? If it makes any difference, I am running on an Ubuntu/Debian server.
