Or switch to a virtual setup, where the users don't get real users on the imap server (they can't log in, so they don't need any real user on that server) and every mail is owned by your virtual mail user.
Well, it of course makes things easier, but from security point of view it's worse..
Of course. But using real users only works if every user is a PosixUser in LDAP (i.e. has a uidNumber and gidNumber). If this is not the case, then you are forced to use a virtual mail user setup.
I hope some day there won't be any problems with Dovecot using multiple UIDs.
