Mail Marshal Configuration

One of our customer is a large server hosting company. They currently maintain a large customer e-mails in Microsoft SQL 2005. They need to configure their SMTP/anti-spam software to authenticate/look-up against those customer information. They had been running a scheduled batch to dump their SQL database and re-import the entries into a directory. We suggested a better and more elegant approach. Using Penrose real-time translation, we map their SQL entries into an LDAP entries “on-the-fly”. Their SMTP/Anti-spam application is then configured to talk to Penrose via a standard LDAP protocol.  A detailed configuration, such as creating LDAP connector and creating user group in Mail Marshall, after the jump.
