Some weird(?) requirements!
« on: May 25, 2010, 03:58:36 AM »
Hi,

I am evaluating round cube for an installation which has some specific requirements.

1. The BCC options should be available for only specefic users. There is a database (oracle) which holds information as to which users are allowed to send a BCC, so based on that DB the BCC field should appear.

2. IMAP server behind the web interface authenticates with Microsoft Active Directory. That AD has 2 domains configured. The address book should display mail ids from these 2 domains as well as a normal SQL AB for user's individual  addresses. ie There should be 2 address books one read only AB which shows addresses from 2 Active Directory domains and another normal SQL based address book.

3. Password Change to Active Directory. Password changes should be done on Active Directory LDAP.

Weird as this looks, these specs are for a corporate mail server. I am sure there will not be any ready made solution for 1 and 2. So I am willing to do some coding and get these stuff done.

Now which approach would be best way forward to tackle this? I know RC support plugins, so can the plugin API support these requirements? Is there any other better way to implement this? Your assistance and guidance would be very helpful as I am pretty new with RC and it's architecture.

with regards,

raj

1. Possible with plugin API
2. This is a core feature
3. Password plugin should do the job.
Tip: use svn-trunk version.
