By post-hoc reasoning I worked out that a new address rewriting rule I had added
seemed to be tickling the problem.
^([a-z]+).([0-9]+)@((?:...)ysu\\.edu)\$ "\
${lookup ldap\
{user=... \
pass=... \
ldaps:///...?uid?sub?(uid=${quote_ldap:$1$2})}\
{$1$2@$3}fail}" Eh
We plan to convert our dotted local parts to undotted local parts. This rule is
intended to make sure the dotted addresses keep working after we change the
local parts in LDAP. We won't necessarily be able to change them all at once so
we have to check the directory to see whether the correct local part is dotted
or undotted.
Does anyone see a problem with this rule?
Thanks,
John
