Definition

Only used in LDAP Schema 1 with iPlanet Delegated Administrator for Messaging.

Defines who has rights to view the group membership list (expand the group). This attribute has the keyword values: none, all, true ,anyone. No matter what the setting of this attribute, group owners always retain the right to view (and modify) membership.

However, if this attribute is checked in the case of group expansion as part of an SMTP EXPN command (that is, not as part of an administrative tool that can easily identify whether or not the client is the group owner), then a value of none ends up operating as if the list is unconditionally disabled. This is because SMTP doesn’t provided a means of establishing a client’s identity, such as “owner”.

The following table lists the keywords and gives a description of each:

Table 6–1 Rights Keywords


Rights	Description
`anyone`	Enables anyone to expand the group (see the members in the mailing list). Also, the MTA returns the addresses of members when an EXPN is performed.
`all or true`	The user has to successfully authenticate to the directory (or iPlanet Delegated Administrator for Messaging) before expansion is allowed.
`none`	Expansion is not allowed.

Unrecognized values are interpreted as none.

If the attribute is not present, the MTA option EXPANDABLE_DEFAULT controls whether the expansion is allowed.

Note –

LDAP_EXPANDABLE is the MTA option used to specify a different attribute name for this function.
