Now to your paper, do you propose a solution/example that does
exactly what I wish? If so, is it located in section 10.5 explicitly
or implicitly?
Not exactly what you want, but the example in 10.5
might provide a useful framework. It works by defining
sets of attributes, then selectively granting access
to entries based on the setting of a visibility
attribute in the entry, then selectively granting
access to attribute sets based on who is asking.
You want to allow individual entries to select the
visibility of mail attributes. The group and set
scheme that you propose is one way to do that (though
I would use member rather than uniqueMember). Another
might be to use a visibility attribute in the entry
and a series of rules of the form:
access to filter="(&(objectclass=person)(visibility=mail-users))"
attrs="mail"
by users read
by * break
That rule would be one of a series, ending up with a
default-deny, perhaps something like this:
access to filter="(objectclass=person)"
by * none
You would need to handle 'self' access in an earlier
rule.
