[Dovecot] IMAP clients can't connect while dovecot 2.0.9 is configured for LDAP

[Matthew Badeau]

Good evening,
Currently, it’s using mySQL for the passdb and userdb. This works fine 
but when I switch to LDAP it starts having problems. I’m trying to set 
up dovecot to use LDAP as its userdb and passdb. I’ve read the docs but 
I think I may be missing something obvious or I didn’t understand 
something right. The clients can’t connect through IMAP using 
MD5-Challenge Response. They also don’t work with plain auth..
When I run the command ` doveadm auth user at domain.com ` , it works! When 
I run ` doveadm auth -x service=imap user at domain.com ` that also works! 
What am I doing wrong???
I get the following error:
Error: Apr 29 02:04:02 servername dovecot: auth: Fatal: CRAM-MD5 
mechanism can't be supported with given passdbs

Here is my config:
# 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

}

Thank you for any help or links to docs!
