Use of sn attribute in iredmail/iredadmin LDAP

$

Hi

I've seen when creating a user thet on the ldif entry the attribute "sn" takes the uid field.
So if the user's mail is foo@bar.com then:

the uid attribute is: foo
the sn attribute  is: foo

Additionaly the web gui (iredadmin pro) show a field "uid" which does not translates in modifying the "uid" attribute, but the employenumber.

So the questions are:

1) is it possibile to set the "sn" attribute to the "cn" (tipically: First Name Last Name)
2) is there a reason to set the "sn" to the uid ? is this required for some internal iredmail's component ?
3) why not updating uid field instead of "employenumber" via the iredadmin gui ?

Thx for help in advance
