Hi,

I want my user to log with their email addresse (eg, ).
All my users are stored in LDAP (OpenLDAP) -
"mail=,ou=...,dc=here,dc=com".

It's working - aka I can authenticate a real user.
But, as the "admins: cyrus", I have to have an LDAP entry set like
"mail=cyrus@,dc=here,dc=com" with the password. This looks not nice to
me so I think maybe my whole cyrus conf is not clean - working but not
the "right" way.

To have a working conf, I did :
# egrep -v '^$|^#' /etc/default/saslauthd
START=yes
MECHANISMS="ldap"

# cat /etc/saslauthd.conf
ldap_servers: ldap://localhost/
ldap_search_base: dc=here,dc=com
ldap_bind_dn: cn=Manager,dc=here,dc=com
ldap_bind_pw: secret
#ldap_filter: mail=%u
ldap_filter: mail=%u@%d
ldap_version: 3

# egrep -v '^$|^#' /etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/lib/cyrus
defaultpartition: default
partition-default: /var/spool/cyrus/mail
partition-news: /var/spool/cyrus/news
newsspool: /var/spool/news
altnamespace: no
unixhierarchysep: yes
lmtp_downcase_rcpt: yes
admins: cyrus
allowanonymouslogin: no
popminpoll: 1
autocreatequota: 0
umask: 077
sieveusehomedir: false
sievedir: /var/spool/sieve
hashimapspool: true
allowplaintext: yes
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
loginrealms: here.com
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_auto_transition: no
tls_ca_path: /etc/ssl/certs
tls_session_timeout: 1440
tls_cipher_list: TLSv1+HIGH:!aNULL:@STRENGTH

If I set :
##########
virtdomains: yes
defaultdomain: here.com
##########

what I want to end with is:
1. as much as possible in LDAP
2. loggin with
3. most of the email will be
4. cyrus admin be "cyrus" (or whatever that does not look like a email
   address. using "ldap_filter: (|(mail=%U@%d)(ou=%U))" does what I want
   although I'm nearly sure it's not "the clean way" to go.

seems to make sense ?
what's the part of my conf to modify ?

thanks for help,
        Jo
