Yes. Is it possible?

If I try bind with a dn like: CN=Chris Visser,OU=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=com then I can't make the bind to AD, even though I can do it using exim and ldapsearch.

Dovecot however binds if I use a dn like: CN=Chris,OU=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=com

I'm back to fiddling with my Dovecot and AD intergation and I've noticed that if a DN contains spaces, dovecot doesn't bind to the AD server.

that means you like to fix this in dovecot since its not AD that make the error in first place ?

Maybe the problem is simply that space isn't in auth_username_chars? If not, show doveconf -n, dovecot-ldap.conf and log output when auth_debug_passwords=yes (with a test user/pass).
