How to use the OpenLDAP LDAP Email Query Service

By sending electronic mail to the address:

        ldap-query@example.com

you can access the campus LDAP Directory.  The Directory contains
information about all faculty, staff, and students of the University,
including phone numbers, mailing addresses, job titles, email
addresses, and more.

To query the service, send a piece of email to this address with a
command similar to:

	find <name>

	e.g. find robert jones

somewhere in the Subject: field or anywhere in the body (text) of the
message.  You will receive a reply that contains information about the
target of your query (in the above example, you would get information
on all "robert jones" who are at the University).  The <name> can be
a person's full name, last name, or uniqname.  An search for exact
matches is first tried; if there are no exact matches, an approximate
search (using soundex rules) is done.

If your query matches exactly one person, you will receive detailed
information about that person.  If more than one is matched, a list will
be returned that should hopefully provide you with enough information
to be able to determine which individual you really want.  Another
query can then be made to obtain the detailed information.

This service understands a number of synonyms for the "find" command,
including: "whois", "search", "look up", "show."  You can also send
a message with the word "help" in it to get this text returned to you.

Note that this service is entirely automated -- no humans will respond
to requests or other email sent here.

We would appreciate any feedback you can provide.
