Cyrus SASL + LDAP

Hi all,
Not strictly a Fedora issue.
I'm trying to get my head around the following configuration:
I want to setup Cyrus SASL such that it will look up a OpenLDAP
directory tree to retrieve the password for authentication. Cyrus SASL
and OpenLDAP will provide authentication services for Cyrus IMAP as well
as Postfix.
From Googling about for the last 3 hours, I have been able to gather
that I should define the following inside /etc/saslauthd.conf:
ldap_servers
ldap_bind_dn
ldap_bind_pw
ldap_search_base
But this will only work if the username is a UID in the tree. For my
purposes, I need SASL to look up the mail attribute and get the
corresponding password.
Is there a parameter that will allow me to define a LDAP search string?
Thanks in advance !
