what does cyrus support through ldap?

[Martin Kraus]

Hi. I hoped that cyrus would be managable through ldap but that doesn't
seem to be the case. Is the cyrus ldap support strictly for authentication?
It's just that sasl can do that as well. 

I'd like to know if there are other options to managing mailboxes besides
calling perl scripts. I need to come up with some kind of a graphical
interface to manage mailboxes and I'm looking for the available options to
interface with cyrus. 

thanks
Martin
