Re: Control of expired passwords with SASL + LDAP

Dan,

I'm using LDAP to authenticate users on the Cyrus Imap Server, with
Thunderbird and eGroupware, and also in the workstations.

On the E-mail server, I'm using saslauthd with LDAP and when password
expires, you can still access the mailbox through Thunderbird.

My goal is just to solve this problem, because both eGroupware and PAM
already do this for me.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks
