Re: Has anyone ever managed to link their AD to Dovecot?

Hello Paul,

Thank you very much for your detailed information and advice.

I'm currently using Dovecot 2.4.1. On Windows, it's not possible to grant a user access to all the necessary information, so I rely on user logins to validate passwords.

This method works correctly for IMAP authentication, but, for some unknown reason, it doesn't work for writing emails: Dovecot can't find the user or the static user database it should use in this case.

I'm continuing to investigate to understand this difference in behavior.

I also wish you a very happy 2026, full of success!

Sincerely,
