Configuring LDAP Queries

The following sections provide the default query strings and configuration details for each type of spam quarantine query:

To have the quarantine use an LDAP query for end-user access or spam notifications, select the “Designate as the active query” check box. You can designate one end-user authentication query to control quarantine access and one alias consolidation query for spam notifications. Any existing active queries are disabled. On the Security Management appliance, choose Management Appliance > System Administration > LDAP page, an asterisk (*) is displayed next to the active queries.

You can also specify a domain-based query or chain query as an active end-user access or spam notification query. For more information, see Domain-Based Queries and Chain Queries.

Note
Use the Test Query button on the LDAP page (or the ldaptest command) to verify that your queries return the expected results.
