Hi devs,
We have been following this application for some time now and we like it a lot.
It would be nice to be able to retrieve alternate email addresses from LDAP to generate multiple identities instead of the current identities section. Can this be implemented as this is what is holding us back to implement RC for our clients.
PS: We estimate to enable this application for some 60,000 email accounts as soon as this hurlde is resolved. For that reason we want this extention to be a standard implementation in the application so it upgrades easily in the future.
Please give us some feedback on your views about this.
Wkr,
Dirk Rennen

I don't use LDAP but if we have LDAP support in addressbook, it'll be possible to add option to support LDAP storage for identities. We're waiting for a patch.

You're not the first requesting this feature and I think the plugin-API could be perfectly used for this. There will be hooks for user and identities creation.
Somebody already started to create a generic LDAP class which can then be used for both contacts and identities retrieval: http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/dev/2008-10/0000135.html
The plugin-API isn't ready yet but it's the next big feature we're working on. You can have a look at it by checking out the deve-api branch from your SVN repository.

Do you have a timeframe on when this may be implemented?
