[horde] Help: preauthenticate hook to select IMAP server

[Jan Schneider]

> My setup is essentially to function as a web-based IMAP gateway to
> many backend IMAP (MS Exchange) servers.
>
> Instead of letting users select from a static list of servers defined
> in servers.php on the login screen, I would like to look up the
> username in my LDAP server to figure out the user's IMAP server when
> user tries to login. The actual IMAP server should authenticate the
> username/password.

> Is preauthenticate hook in horde hooks.php the right place to do this?
>
> The sample code provided in hooks.php for LDAP lookup works fine but
> what global variables do I need to set to select the appropriate
> server based on my LDAP search result?
>
> Please advise and thanks in advance. Code snippets will be highly
> appreciated. :-)
