        - Stuart Henderson:
you could perhaps use "auth_bind = yes" to have Dovecot attempt a bind with the user-supplied password [...]
Thanks, that sounds like an approach worth investigating to me. Current access control settings for the LDAP server do not permit this method of binding, but I might be able to have the settings changed.
