Dear Mailman Users,

I would like to point you to a LDAP member adaptor I have written for Mailman 2: https://github.com/rettenbs/mailman-ldap-memberadaptor

It is based on the work of https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/558106 but allows the adminstrator and the user to change most of the configuration options, e.g. digest/non-digest, enable/disable mail delivery, .... (Adding/removing users is still not possible.) To store these options, the build in member adaptor is used (no external database or LDAP modifications are required).

Groups are also handled a bit different from the original LDAP adaptor: The orignal adaptor assumes that group stores user dn's while my adaptor connects them via the uid. I replaced this part because our LDAP is structured this way but it should not be to difficult to get back the original functionality.

Be aware that the code is new in still in beta. Bug reports and patches are welcome.

Best regards, Sebastian
