I don't have it in production yet because there are other things I am still trying to add to samba4, but my test server has dovecot authenticating against samba4. Without openchange or any other non-native mechanism.
Dovecot supports authenticating against ldap, the settings are in your auth-ldap.conf file. Samba4/Active Directory is just another ldap implementation. between the config files and the wiki, I believe all the documentation you need is there...

Hi group
I am currently running a mail server on ubuntu 11.04 with postfix 2.8.5, dovecot dovecot 2.0.13 and openldap 2.4.23. I have now read about sogo and I am thinking about installing it because of it's native outlook support capabilities.
The ZEG appliance wouldn't be an option for me because I use a virtual server from a provider where I can't install my own vm or even an iso.
When I go thru the documentation there is a part with installing OpenChange based on samba4. As far as I understood the OpenChange authentication is against the samba4 AD. Actually there is no support in syncing the AD against an OpenLdap Server and I would have to change the OpenLdap port because the AD is listening on port 389. To change the port wouldn't be a big deal, but what i was thinking about to run the dovecot auth also against the samba 4 AD.
I searched around on the internet but didn't find a doc yet how to do that.
Does anyone here could provide me with a link or a how-to ?
Thanks very much in advance.
