Thank you for your fast answer. Actually, I already tried that yesterday, without any success. Here is the dovecot log I have if I enable winbind and ntlm mechanisms.

Hi all,
I?m actually running samba 3 as a primary domain controller. The workstations of my network are all running windows (some xp, some vista) and use Outlook 2007 as a web client.
Samba is set up with the following parameters :
security = user
passdb backend = tdbsam
unix password sync = Yes
domain master = yes
domain logons = yes
Everything works fine on samba side, meaning that the machines are part of the domain, and users do authenticate correctly.
For the moment, the users are getting their mail (pop3 or imap) through dovecot (running on the same box as samba).
Dovecot is configured with mechanisms = plain.
I would like to secure it by using mechanisms = ntlm, but still using the system users.
I found much information on how to authenticate against an active

but nothing that allows me to keep my actual authentication against system users. Indeed, if I just change the mechanisms to ntlm, dovecot does not start anymore complaining that ?NTLM mechanism can't be supported with given passdbs?
You can authenticate your users via Samba's winbind daemon. Read more here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/Mechanisms/Winbind
Any help would be much appreciated as I already tried the whole day yesterday to get it working ?
