Ldap personal name MTA option

Direct LDAP attribute name MTA options:  (LDAP attribute name)
The  MTA option specifies the name of a user or group LDAP attribute used to specify a user&#x27;s (or group&#x27;s) choice of personal name. This option has no default; some sites might choose to set it to.

If the  MTA option is set, then the value of  the specified attribute (if present in a user entry) will be inserted by the MTA as a personal name wherever the user&#x27;s address appears in message headers (overriding any originally present personal name for the user that might have been present), including when generating vacation messages on behalf of the user. Note that (as of 6.2p3 for normal messages, or as of 6.2p6 for generated messages such as vacation messages) the MTA will quote the value obtained from LDAP, if required according to the quoting rules for personal names (technically "phrases") given in RFC 822.

For messages submitted through MSHTTP (messages submitted from web clients), see also the  MSHTTP option.
