[turba] IMP ldap prefs/Turba personal ldap addresses

[Jean-Michel Besnard]

Hi,

I don't see any reason why you would a second ldap directory. You should be able
to do everything with ispman's ldap.
If you ask on irc channel #ispman (irc.openprojects.net) you should find people
that have achieved this (I know some who did that way) or you can ask this in
the ispman mailing list, since most of the ispman users also use horde.
