How is the cn=number part calculated in a PAB dn?

I have not found a way to copy the address book from one username to another -- there may be instances where we have to change the uid of a user.

PAB entry dn's look like the following in LDAP:

dn: cn=46327298,ou=user,o=pab

I have never seen any documentation on how the RDN (in this case, cn=46327298) is formed. It looks like it is calculated from the uid, since changing just the uid=user part does not work when the uid is changed for a user.

Could someone please shed some light on how the cn=number is calculated?

Thank you in advance!

It looks a little different in my version of the messaging server, but I remember the numbers looking like that in my 4.15 version of the mail server.

At any rate, if I remember correctly, it is a time stamp, denoting the number of seconds passed since some start date of a non-standard variety.
