your LDAP directory will be able to connect to Modoboa, the associated
domain and mailboxes will be automatically created if needed.
.. note::
The first time a user connects to Modoboa, a local account is created
if the LDAP username is a valid email address. By default, this
account belongs to the *SimpleUsers* group and it has a mailbox.
Users created automatically from an LDAP directory belongs to the
*SimpleUsers* group and have a mailbox. To do so, usernames have to
be valid email addresses. If not, LDAP users won't be able to
access Modoboa.
To automatically create domain administrators, you can use the
**Administrator groups** setting. If a LDAP user belongs to one the
listed groups, its local account will belong to the *DomainAdmins*
group. In this case, the username is not necessarily an email address.
Users will also be able to update their LDAP password directly from
Modoboa.
