[External Mail] Re: Help with configuring for multiple DC for LDAP

[Wayne Sprouse]

I had created the attribute email_domain as a string field in the
dictionary file before sending this help request.

I read numerous discussions online regarding using an email
address to determine which domain to authenticate against. I was not "just
inventing things and expecting them to work" but using examples
others shared that worked for them.
