Is there anywhere an example of how this would be setup? I
understand the use of a service account which I already setup but I
can't figure out how to use this service account to retrieve
information and authenticate users.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

Good morning.<br>
<br>
I was just reading <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/PasswordLookups"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/PasswordLookups</a>
and found the following statement<br>
<blockquote type="cite">When using <a
href="https://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA" moz-do-not-send="true">LDA</a>
and static userdb, deliver can check if destination user
exists. With auth binds this check isn't possible.</blockquote>
<br>
Is this still relevant? Is there a workaround? It seems like
using dovecots lmtp in an active directory environment is not
possible, is this correct?<br>

<p>You cannot check user existence with auth binds because auth
bind requires user credentials.</p>
<p>This is why I suggested you use a "service user" in LDAP to
perform the database lookups instead of auth binds. You can
still authenticate your users using kerberos.<br>
