Ok, looks easy. But I can't find information anywhere on how to specify the
user. I tried with 'USER=username' in front of the dovecot call, and dovecot
then said 'Logged in as username' instead of 'Logged in as root', but a list
command doesn't show the mailboxes, so I think it's not accessing the maildir
of that user.
I guess it's because the users are not system users, and dovecot needs to
retrieve info from the LDAP directory first. But how do I tell it to do that?

Logging in via netcat / telnet works, but then I don't know how to proceed...

Thanks for your help!
Patrick.
