1. Introduction
Often there is a need to add attribute 'mail' defined in [RFC4524] to
directory entries to associate a, most times non-personal, RFC 2822
mail address with an arbitrary object.
This document defines the auxiliary object class
'mailboxRelatedObject' for that purpose so abusing person object
classes like 'inetOrgPerson' defined in [RFC2798] for non-personal
mail addresses is not needed.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
This document is being discussed on the ldapext@ietf.org mailing
list.
2. Attribute Type Definition
The attribute type 'intlMailAdr' is defined for storing
internationalized email addressess like used in [RFC5335] and
[RFC5336].
( 1.3.6.1.4.1.5427.1.389.4.18
NAME 'intlMailAdr'
DESC 'Internationalized Email Address'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
3. Object Class Definition
Stroeder Expires August 01, 2013 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft LDAP Mailbox Related Objects January 2013
Entries of auxiliary object class 'mailboxRelatedObject' MAY contain
the following optional attributes: 'mail' [RFC4524] 'displayName'
[RFC2798] 'intlMailAdr'
( 1.3.6.1.4.1.5427.1.389.6.9
NAME 'mailboxRelatedObject'
DESC 'Associated RFC 2822 mailbox for any entry'
AUXILIARY
MAY ( displayName $ mail $ intlMailAdr ) )
4. IANA Considerations
The OID arc used for the object class defintion is:
iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) private(4) enter-prise(1)
stroeder.com(5427) public(1) ldap(389) objectClasses(6)
5. Security Considerations
The introduction of these object classes does not impact the security
of the Internet or a particular LDAP directory service.
Security considerations for LDAP in general are discussed in
documents comprising the technical specification [RFC4510].
