MgrpModerator LDAP Attribute



 Syntax 

 IA5 string (ASCII) 

 OID 

 2.16.840.1.113894.1009.1.101.0.1136.1.1 



Definition

LDAP URI or mailto URL identifying the moderators allowed to submit messages to this list. Only those messages that are submitted by the moderator are sent to the members of this list. Messages submitted by others are forwarded to the moderators for approval and resubmitting.

The URLs given as the value of this attribute are expanded into a series of addresses, and then compared with the envelope "from" address. If there is a match, group processing continues. If there is no match, the value of this attribute becomes the group URL, any list of RFC 822 addresses or DNs associated with the group is cleared, the delivery options for the group are set to "members," and there is no further group processing for the failed URL (subsequent group attributes are ignored).

You can specify metacharacter substitutions in this attribute. In particular, the address-related metacharacter sequences ($A for the entire address, $U for the mailbox part, $D for the domain part) refer to the current envelope "from" address and can in some cases be used to limit the results returned by the URL to entries that are likely (or guaranteed) to match. This may make authorization checks more efficient.

To enable metacharacter substitutions, you must enable the MTA option PROCESS_SUBSTITUTIONS. For details about this option, see the Sun Java System Messaging Server Administration Guide.

Note: LDAP_MODERATOR_URL is the MTA option used to specify a different attribute name for this function.
