Something like:
ldap_fuzzy:
driver = aliasfile
search_type = ldap
query = "ldap://ldap-server/?mail?sub?(cn~=$local_part)"
add_headers = "X-LDAP-Fuzzy: ldap_fuzzy $local_part"
I've just been playing with this :} Trying to get exim to use Lotus
Notes' LDAP service, what a nightmare. The fuzzy matches can sometimes
be a bit startling, hence the extra header.
If you do "search_type=ldapm", then the incoming message will be sent
to all entries that fuzzy-match, which may or may not be what you
want. (I wouldn't want it, personally...)
