Hi cyrus users,
I'm working on an migration project from Netscape Message Server (AIX)
to a Linux Postfix/Openldap/Cyrus-Imapd solution.
On Netscape Message Server the user-id which the Netscape Client sent to
the IMAP4/POP3 server is not case sensitive. I read on the archive the
cyrus user-id is case sensitiv.
I attached a patch of lib/auth_unix.c which will always convert an
identifier to a lowercase canonified-identifier.
Can anybody discuss this issue with me ?
Is it the right source location to do this patch ?
Regards,
Dirk
