Thanks for giving a good stab at this, John.  I tried just changing the "cn" 
for a user without changing the dn to read cn=amessina... (currently, 
eGroupWare expects it to read uid=amessina...)  That did not work.

Is it to be expected, then, that one is not able to do something like:

target = ldap://some_attr=($dn)...

userdn = ldap://some_other_attr=($dn)... or
userdn = ldap://some_other_attr=[$dn]...
???

In short, does the ($dn) macro in the target HAVE TO match the whole portion 
between the commas, like "uid=amessina" rather than just "amessina":

Can it do:
target = ldap://cn=($dn),ou=....
or must it be:
target = ldap://($dn),ou=...

I'm thinking that I'll be using the ($attr) or userattr methods, but I'm not 
sure how as the access is based on the tree structure, rather than attributes 
of subcomponent entried:

+-ou=messinet.com,ou=egw,dc=messinet,dc=com
| |
| +-ou=accounts
| | +-uid=amessina
| | +-uid=...
| |
| +-ou=groups
| | +-cn=Default
| | +-cn=...
| |
| +ou=contacts
|   |
|   +-ou=shared
|   | +-cn=default
|   | +-cn=...
|   |
|   +-ou=personal
|     +-cn=amessina
|     +-cn=...
