My config:

passdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
  driver = ldap
}

userdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
  default_fields = uid=virtmail gid=virtmail home=/srv/mail/%2NLn/%2.256NLn/%Ln/ quota_rule2=Trash:ignore
  driver = ldap
}

I also use ldap for the userdb, because I need to lookup the quota from
LDAP.

Here is my ldap.conf.ext, there is some elaborate filtering going on,
but you should get the idea:

hosts = ldap.somedomain.de
dn = cn=mailsystem,ou=systemuser,dc=somedomain,dc=de
dnpass = verySecurePassword
tls = yes
auth_bind = yes
ldap_version = 3
base = dc=somedomain,dc=de
deref = always
scope = subtree
user_attrs = =quota_rule=*:bytes=%{ldap:gifb-mailquota}
user_filter = (&(objectClass=gifb-mailperson)(ou=SomeLocation)(uid=%Ln)(!(objectClass=gifb-role)))
pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password
pass_filter = (&(objectClass=gifb-mailperson)(ou=SomeLocation)(gifb-status=1)(uid=%n)(!(objectClass=gifb-role)))
iterate_attrs = uid=user
iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=gifb-mailperson)(ou=SomeLocation))

Sven.
