I want to setup an ldap server that will hold an addressbook of users their emails their smime certificates. I want to use this ldap server as an addressbook in thunderbird and/or other mail clients but thunderbird is preferred. I would like to be able to import contacts from this addressbook(one or all) including their s/mime certs so that i can email any and/or all of them securely . both signed and encrypted. And basically when another new user is created on the server, everyone can get his identity and send him/her signed or encrypted messages.
So far I've struggled with trying to add userSMIMECertificate fields to entries in the ou=People but to no avail - thunderbird can search for them, doesn't list them all by default but matches search patterns, however there's no smime import or anything like that.
