Hi,
Can anyone help me with this? At our place each users mailbox lives on one of a number
of IMAP servers. I'm trying to find out where to place a patch in IMP-3.2 so that the
correct imap server for a user can be obtained from ldap. For example, user 'fred' will
have an attribute in the directory 'mailstore' with the value 'mail-a' whereas user
'barney' will have the value 'mail-b' for his mailstore. I want to be able to set the
server which IMP uses for each of these users appropriately at login time. Servers.php
would seem to be the best place for this routine but I'm not sure that the username
supplied in the IMP login screen is available when servers.php is processed.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
