Re: Deleting specific attribute values.

[Jaron Omega <jaron@nethere.net>]

Ok, figured it out. :)

attributetype ( 1.2.3.4
        NAME 'maildrop'
        EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
        ORDERING caseIgnoreOrderingMatch
        SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
        DESC 'Forwarding Address'
        SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40 )

That fixed the problem :)
