13.7 Securing the Post Office with LDAP Authentication

For user convenience, you can configure the post office for LDAP authentication through an LDAP directory such as NetIQ eDirectory or Microsoft Active Directory. LDAP authentication enables users to use their LDAP (network) passwords to access their GroupWise mailboxes, rather than having separate GroupWise passwords.

The POA performs the LDAP authentication for users in the post office. For setup instructions, see Section 15.3.4, Providing LDAP Authentication for GroupWise Users.
