Bug #100865 for RT-Authen-ExternalAuth: Wishlist: allow E-mail address to be used for login name

Hello. I would just like to suggest adding the ability for users to log in to RT using their E-mail address in addition to their login name, for those that have them defined in LDAP of course. This would essentially change the $filter in LDAP.pm (line 177) to: $filter = Net::LDAP::Filter->new( '(|(&(' . $attr_map->{'Name'} . '=' . escape_filter_value($username) . ')' . $filter . ')(&(' $attr_map->{'EmailAddress'} . '=' . escape_filter_value($username) . ')' . $filter . '))' ); Thank you very much for your time and work on such a great piece of software! Sincerely, Sean M.
