LdAp Schema for E-mail Routing BOF (laser) Tuesday, November 9 at 1300-1400 ================================ CHAIR: John Beck DESCRIPTION: The use of LDAP is becoming increasingly popular, and the demand for mail transfer agents (MTAs) to be able to extract relevant information is increasing along with it. Of particular interest is settling upon a common schema for local email routing. LDAP will *not* be contacted for routing e-mail until the MTA first determines that it is listed as an MX or A record for the host named on the right hand side of the email address. The primary goal is to define which schema to use in requesting local routing information (a.k.a. aliasing) from an LDAP directory service. Secondary goals include the definition of schema to use in for mailing list and user forwarding. AGENDA: * Background (see Charter below) * Review draft (draft-lachman-laser-ldap-mail-routing-01.txt) * Discussion of future direction, per Milestones and Goals (see below)
