Mutt-LDAP provides an external address query script for Mutt which connects to LDAP databases using python-ldap. It can cache queries locally in case your LDAP server is slow or not always available, expiring cached queries after a configurable amount of time.
Installation
Packages
Gentoo
I’ve packaged Mutt-LDAP for Gentoo. You need layman and my wtk overlay. Install with:
# emerge -av app-portage/layman # layman --add wtk # emerge -av mail-client/mutt-ldap
Dependencies
If you’re installing by hand or packaging Mutt-LDAP for another distribution, you’ll need the following dependencies:

Installing by hand
Mutt-LDAP is available as a Git repository:
$ git clone git://tremily.us/mutt-ldap.git
It is also mirrored on GitHub. To install the checkout, run the standard:
$ python setup.py install
or you can just copy mutt_ldap.py into to your PATH.
Usage
Add the following line to your ~/.muttrc:
set query_command = "mutt_ldap.py '%s'"
Search for addresses (from Mutt) with ^t, optionally after typing part of the name. Configure your connection by creating ~/.mutt-ldap.rc contaning something like:
[connection] server = myserver.example.net basedn = ou=people,dc=example,dc=net
See the CONFIG options in mutt_ldap.py for other available settings.
