So I'm back to the ldap configuration. Still not there.

I have DBMail working perfectly on just mysql auth. When I
switch to the "ldap" auth, I get "the can not connect to
the database" error.

I assume there is some sort of auth problem. 

If I do not have the ldap schema attributes in the "[LDAP]"
section of the dbmail.conf set correctly, would this cause
a connection problem between ldap/dbmail?


I started a wiki page for DBMail LDAP documentation to keep
track of any learnings below:

http://www.dbmail.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=dbmail:ldap

BTW: I am currently using a custom ldap schema. If the
schema is a problem I will likely expand on the
dbmail.schema for my requirements


Thanks,
