Thanks for the response and your explanation.

I'm trying to build an authenticator that will do ldapauth if the
submitted username has an LDAP attribute set.
Something like ( and I know this is wrong ):-

    server_condition = ${if and  \
                                            ${lookup 
ldap{ldap:///o=southover,c=uk?mail?sub? 
(&(cn=${quote_ldap_dn:$1})(smtpAuth=${quote_ldap:TRUE}))}} \
${ldapauth{user="cn=${quote_ldap_dn:$1},o=southover,c=uk" 
pass=${quote:$2} ldap://ldap.southover.net/}             \
                                      }{yes}{no}





"Unable to authenticate at present (set_id=souxelp): condition name
expected, but found "{ldapauth {user=" "

It seems that I do not have a very good grasp of the logic syntax for
server_condition.

Any advice would be gratefully received.
