Dovecot needs a password DB where to perform authentication and a user
DB where to retrieve home directory and uid/gid.
With A.D. you can perform only the first: authorization but you should
use Kerberos and PAM, not LDAP. Actually, a Microsoft extension to A.D.
exists; it add unix style accounting to A.D., but I did not test it
(ehi, it's Microsoft stuff! Do you really think it can work? ;-)
For the user DB you should use static uid/gid and virtual mailboxes (a
single Linux user that own all the mailboxes).
If you are interested, search the list archives to find my post where I
rougly explained how to do it.
Sorry for my terrible english.
Greets.
