EVPM - Mailbox section

I understand that that EVPM permits multiple mailbox sections. However I am trying to make this work using and it is not. Does anyone know if the format of the sections changes if there is more than one mailbox section in the ini file?

Thanks
  • LDAPQueryDomain is a valid undocumented keyword.

    However, the ini file will only honor ONE Mailbox section, you will have to have multiple ini files.

  • Nue, I've always used a single mailbox section with multiple entries in there for more than one mailbox. Like this:

    ;---------------------------------
    ; Mailbox Section
    ;---------------------------------

    DistinguishedName = test1
    DistinguishedName = test2
    DistinguishedName = test3

    Thanks for the reply. My problem is that I need to have separate Mailbox sections in order to make my LDAPquery function correctly, I have to set a different ldap query domain in each section.

    Any other thoughts?

    Thanks.
  • Not sure I understand. From the docs:

    A single section can contain multiple DistinguishedName keywords, LDAPQuery keywords, or a mixture of the two.

    Can you post examples?

    If you can't get two different LDAP keywords to work in the same section then you may have to setup two seperate runs of the INI file, once for each LDAP query.

    Here is what I mean. As you can see the LDAPquery has limited capabilites, specifically when you need to query a GC hence the use of the ldapquerydomain.



    LDAPQuery = mailNickname=maryann

    LDAPQueryDomain = somedomain.com



    LDAPQuery = mailNickname=billybob

    LDAPQueryDomain = someotherdomain.com
  • Maybe someone can back me up on this, but is "LDAPQueryDomain" a valid keyword? According to the docs each line should be as follows:

    LDAPquery = ( )

    I don't see where LDAPQueryDomain comes into play, unless it's an undocumented feature.

    Assuming that it is, then it looks like it should operate to point EVPM towards a particular domain. If that's the case then you are most likely looking at seperate INI files for each domain.

    You are correct on both accounts. Support had sent me down the wrong path.

    Thanks.
