Hi all
We're using LDAP (AD) for authentication and this works well. When a user sends an email from address@concealed, it all works well. However, a lot of users are used to using address@concealed. If this is used, the email is rejected by sympa. So, I checked and the alternate address is in proxyAddresses in LDAP - fine - let's add that. Those addresses are prefixed with the protocol (smtp, sip or x500 in this case), so I found (somewhere) that using the select line below, should help to clean this up. Going further, I've enabled merge_feature in sympa.conf and I start testing. It works well from address@concealed, vut if I try from address@concealed, the email is silently discarded, never to be seen again.
Can anyone find an obvious error below (that is, from auth.conf), please tell!
thanks in advance
roy
