Is it possible to ipa to send a email to user when his account is about<br>
to expire (the current date is near krbprincipalexpiration date) ?<br>

<br>
Not currently. In 3.0+ we will provide a notice when one logs into the<br>
WebUI but that's it.<br>
<br>
We can't be sure that an MTA is properly configured on the IPA server at<br>
install time so we have punted on this for a while. We don't want to get<br>
into the business of picking and configuring one. This is one of those<br>
things that seems really easy but gets complicated the deeper you dig<br>
into it. We're open to suggestions/patches.<br>

Yeah, I don't think we want to be in the business of installing and configuring an MTA. However, we should be able to detect if one is available and use it if it is. I think it would be reasonable to restrict it to LMTP with a Unix domain socket (most MTA's support this). Then our config would have a LMTP domain socket pathname, if that pathname exists and we can connect to it we use, if not we fallback to not generating any mail.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
