 A real example
OK lets make it simple. We have a number of customers and have a system that keeps track of the e-mail addresses of different people (roles) at each customer, I wnat to have it so I have a saved search one for each customer site that will pick off the "administrator" at each site but the users at each site do change and I want my e-mail "folder" for each site to be updated so that the current (and maybe past) people from that site are avaiable within that folder. In other words I want the system (a script that I write) to look elsewhere and update my search folders as external conditions change.
I took a look at the soap.txt file and it looks like what I would need is there.
For an example that does not use CORAS (the sysems refered to above)
Say you have a attrubute in your GAS (external to Zimbra) a field called "company" and you wnat a folder that has all of the messages from any e-mail address that is from or to that company now what the script does is go to the LDAP directory and walk the tree finding each e-mail address and finds if there is a attrubute "company" for that node and
builds up a search (and stores it) for that company.
Anyway that is one place I can think of that this might be used.  |
