that is what I thought - was a bit confused with the recommendation
about a function and LDAP...
I did find a reference from 2003 from Liviu Daia suggesting REGEX
capability in the ldap lookups, but it seems like that was never
discussed outside of that...it was similiar to what I was looking for.
domain = regexp:/^@(.*\.)?my\.domain$/
query_filter = regexp:/^(.*)$/:(mailacceptinggeneralid=${1})
result_filter = regexp:/^(.*)$/:${1}
