I realize that there have been some big changes in features and configuration file settings between 0.99.xx and 1.0-stable, so when I went to perform an upgrade on our testing server, I carefully combed through the configuration files and matched up everything I could.
I fired up dovecot-1.0-stable and was pleased to see that it was happily running. I attempted to connect to it, and discovered that it wasn't listening to any ports.. then I realized that the app had crashed due to a typo in the config file (oops). Fixed that, started it up, and it was happily running and listening.
Getting a few minutes old 1.0-stable would also be useful to avoid the mbox performance problems that I managed to put into it a few days ago :)
However, it wouldn't authenticate any users.. Backing down to the 0.99.14 version that we had installed allowed for authentication (against ldap) to work just fine..
Is there anything that I should be looking for within the dovecot-1.0-stable that is dramatically different in regards to user authentication?
Here's something:

But I don't think there was supposed to be any LDAP changes. If you set auth_verbose = yes, what does it say the problem is?
