for particular reasons entries have to have a multi valued otherMailbox attribute, something like dn: cn=foo bar,ou=some ou objectclass: inetorgPerson objectclass: extensibleObject ... otherMailbox: SMTP$joe@example.com otherMailbox: smtp$foo@bar.com Adding the second attribute value I get error 18, inappropriate matching. Is this intended behaviour or is this a bug?
Why "particular reasons entries have to have a multi valued otherMailbox attribute"? Design fault, or inescapable idiot client?
Because it is not my job nore my position to discuss the directory design.
Explanation: At my high school site, users (i.e. cn, uid) often have to have multiple mail attributes (objectClasses: courierMailAccount, courierMailAlias, evolutionPersonlist, inetOrgPerson, mailRecipient and a couple of others). It is important that they have multiple mail attributes for a couple or three reasons, all to do with Postfix.
Why can't you do the same?
Because my only job is to investigate into this displayed error and document it.
