You would be able to use the same dovecot-ldap.conf for both also.

The =gid=12 and =uid=1001 could be replaced with mail_gid and mail_uid  
settings in dovecot.conf. But those shouldn't break anything.

Hmm. Oh, right. The sAMAccountName=user does actually nothing with  
deliver. That's kind of a bug I should probably fix.. You could  
instead do something like:

user_attrs = sAMAccountName=home=/var/spool/vmail/%$

And then use mail_location = %h
