7.1 Configuring Connectors

Connectors allow MailMarshal to import user and group information from Active Directory and LDAP servers. Both Active Directory connectors and LDAP connectors import email addresses from user accounts, contacts, groups, and public folders. Additionally, LDAP connectors import names from other applications. For more information, contact Trustwave Technical Support.

For information about creating connectors, see “Creating Directory Connectors”.
