I've read about allow_nets but i can't find very much info when dovecot is used with ldap. Can someone give me a direction (url, configuration file, ...).

You'll have to store the allow_nets field to LDAP using some name and tell Dovecot to use it in pass_attrs. On LDAP side you probably need some special schema (don't ask me about that) or you need to use some other existing field for that purpose.

pass_attrs anyway goes something like:

pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,someField=allow_nets
