I am doing a search for the mail attribute and using a person's uid as the result (so one mailbox per uid). I want to have multiple e-mail addresses per person, but the second e-mail address (which can be found by ldapsearch) is rejected as not being in the local recipient table. What am I doing wrong? [21:29:43] <adaptr> only the primary address is being searched, obviously [21:29:54] <adaptr> you need to adjust your query to fit [21:30:37] <fissy> i have query_filter = (mail=%s) - does %s not come from the RCPT TO: ?
