hi,

i use LDAP routing for my small, private and cosy setup at home, which
is implemented similar to some exim/perdition/cyrus setups i implemented
in austria.

the nice thing about LDAP is that exim uses LDAP for mail routing and
SMTP AUTH, cyrus uses the same directory for user authentication and
perdition for user authentication and routing.

yes, my implementation is based upon this draft. i use the following
attributes:

- mailLocalAddress
- mailRoutingAddress
- mailHost

these attributes are defined in the misc.schema.

if you're interested i can send you the ldap related stuff of my config
@home.
