I'm trying to setup the sendmail feature ldap_routing using Oracle Internet Directory (OID)for the LDAP server.

There is a matching rule in the sendmail schema called caseExactIA5SubstringsMatch not doesn't exist in OID.

Has anyone found a way to resolve this problem?

I opened a tar with Oracle and was basically told 'to bad, use openldap'.
