Postfix LDAP Howto
LDAP Support in Postfix
Postfix can use an LDAP directory as a source for any of its
lookups:
aliases(5),
virtual(5),
canonical(5), etc. This allows
you to keep information for your mail service in a replicated
network database with fine-grained access controls. By not storing
it locally on the mail server, the administrators can maintain it
from anywhere, and the users can control whatever bits of it you
think appropriate. You can have multiple mail servers using the
same information, without the hassle and delay of having to copy
it to each.
