After I found out that {CRYPT} doesn't support passwords longer than 8characters, I decided to switch over to MD5 for user passwords in my LDAP database. However, while I have no problem with Postfix + SASL, Dovecot fails to authenticate.
I think you just found out, that 3DES (?) only supports password with not more that 8 characters.
Try:
password-hash {CRYPT} password-crypt-salt-format $1$%.8s
in your slapd.conf for MD5 hashes. After restarting slapd all new created and modified password will math that pattern.
Does anyone has the salt format for Blowfish ready to hand?
