Fedora and Sun Directory Server uses a special operational attribute to
record password expiration date.
I submit a patch to use this attribute to warn the user about password
expiration.
This solution is not perfect, because:
- password policy shoul be read from LDAP server instead of Horde
configuration
- Fedora/Sun Directory Server provide a grace period in which you can
authenticate after expiration; in this time your messages present a
negative number of remaining days.

Cheers,
