Mr. James;
I'm cc'ing you as you were listed in the headers of EmailParser_Local.pm, 
even though you (are|were) looking for the original creator.

rt-3.0.4. rh7.3, etc.

There was a problem in using this, logging in via the web interface to 
create a new account. I've not narrowed it down completely, but if I have 
a userid "john" and attempt to login via "john" and my ldap password, it 
never gets anywhere. The email address search 
	my $filter = "mail=".$UserInfo{'EmailAddress'};
never matches, and 
	$filter = "mail=".$UserInfo{'RealName'}; 
might pick it up, but I still never get the rt screen.

Some accounts it works, others it doesn't, where username equals 
firstname.

I've changed it to:
	my $filter = "uid=".$UserInfo{'EmailAddress'};

And I seem to have better success.

So, if anyone knows, what was the reasoning, and would it be worth it to 
modify the search routines for uid, then email, then realname?

Thanks.
