I would love to use alter my LDAP lookups, but this is the only way I
can think of.

I have (among others) these LDAP entries:

# LDAPv3

# requesting: ALL

As you can see, I have three entries with the same email address. I want
all three of them to get mails to that email address. Problem is, one
user (larsmj) is on another box, so I need to use the manualroute
driver. That's what I can't figure out, how to user two different
routers on the same address. Is it at all possible without using unseen?

It's easy if I do not have any addresses which several users have, but I
want that feature...

Thanks for your patient help so far :)

Best regards,
Stian
