LDAP server

When you use Netmail's Address Search feature to obtain access to a directory service, the LDAP request is passed to the web server that runs the LDAP CGI program. The CGI program requests information from the LDAP server. The web server must be able to communicate with the LDAP server. If the web server and the LDAP server are both behind a firewall, NetMail users can still search the directory even if they are outside the firewall.
