I can certainly see the desirability to leverage LDAP. However, it
seems to me that having Cyrus look up integral data such as this on
an LDAP server could significantly slow down that Cyrus server and/or
pummel your LDAP server pretty hard.
Instead, perhaps that information could be "cached" on the Cyrus
server in its native format. Perhaps snag one of the Perl LDAP
modules and write a script that periodically runs through the LDAP
server, updating various things in Cyrus as necessary. Though, it
might be cool if some kind of trigger could be used so that only
incremental updates would be required.
