I also updated the first ebuild in #28203 to get ezmlm support and to
get the qmail.schema copied into /etc/openldap/schema.
This worked fine for nearly 5 month, i guess.
(btw: It's stable stable stable)

But the qmail.schema in qmail-ldap-1.03-r1.ebuild will never work with
openldap-2.1.XX. To get this done out of the box, you need the new
patch from André Oppermann.
Then you will realise, that this patch already contains smtp-auth and
TLS.
Have a look at those features
http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=22859&action=view.
(btw.: This ebuild is also based on the first ebuild. Make a diff!)

That ebuild is working at my box right now. The smtp-auth and TLS
stuff is working perfectly. The ezmlm-Mainlinglist is doing its job...

Openldap-2.0.27-r4 seems to be stable, but after a month uptime there
are far to many ESTABLISHED connections. But i donnow. Since there are
quite some differences between 2.0 and 2.1 i will stay with
openldap-2.1.
If gentoo switches to openldap-2.1.XX in the stable tree the openldap
users won't be able to restart their openldap-servers. One reason is
the broken qmail.schema. So qmail-ldap must be also ready for this
moment.

Bis denne,
