Chapter 23 LDAP Queries
Using Acceptance Queries For Recipient Validation
Note that a server may be unreachable because the wrong port was entered in the server configuration,
or the port is not opened in the firewall. LDAP servers typically communicate over port 3268 or 389.
Active Directory uses port 3268 to access the global catalog used in multi-server environments (See the
“Firewall Information” appendix for more information.) In AsyncOS 4.0, the ability to communicate to
the LDAP server via SSL (usually over port 636) was added. For more information, see

A server may also be unreachable because the hostname you entered cannot be resolved.
You can use the Test Server(s) on the Add/Edit LDAP Server Profile page (or the
test
subcommand of
the
ldapconfig
command in the CLI) to test the connection to the LDAP server. For more information,

If LDAP Accept or Masquerading or Routing is enabled on the work queue, mail will remain within

Using Acceptance Queries For Recipient Validation
You can use your existing LDAP infrastructure to define how the recipient email address of incoming
messages (on an public listener) should be handled. Changes to user data in your directories are updated
the next time the appliance queries the directory server. You can specify the size of the caches and the
amount of time the appliance stores the data it retrieves.

Note
You may wish to bypass LDAP acceptance queries for special recipients (such as
administrator@example.com
). You can configure this setting from the Recipient Access Table (RAT).
For information about configuring this setting, see the “Configuring the Gateway to Receive Email”
