Actually, it is GID substitution, the UID is retained from the configuration 
file.  We use OpenLDAP.  Here are the relevant contents from the authldaprc 
file:

LDAP_AUTHBIND           0
LDAP_BASEDN             ou=users,o=domain
LDAP_BINDDN             uid=root,ou=admin,o=domain
LDAP_BINDPW             password
LDAP_CLEARPW            userPassword
LDAP_CRYPTPW            userPassword
LDAP_DEFAULTDELIVERY    defaultDelivery
LDAP_DEREF              never
LDAP_DOMAIN             domain.com
LDAP_FILTER             (&(!(pmFlag=suspended))(!(pmFlag=softSuspend)))
LDAP_FULLNAME           pmDeviceId
LDAP_GID                mail
LDAP_GLOB_GID           mail
LDAP_GLOB_UID           pmuser
LDAP_HOMEDIR            pmHomeDirectory
LDAP_MAIL               mail
LDAP_MAILDIR            Maildir
LDAP_MAILDIRQUOTA       pmmaxspoolsize
LDAP_MAILROOT           /usr/home
LDAP_PROTOCOL_VERSION   3
LDAP_TIMEOUT            5
LDAP_TLS                0
LDAP_UID                pmuser
LDAP_URI                ldap://lb-ldap

    I've noticed a problem with the current (and presumably past) versions of
    Courier Imap.  We are using ldap as the authentication method and it appears
    that if the email address of the account starts with a number, then Courier 
    Imap uses that number as the UID to access the email rather than the UID set
    in the configuration files.  Is there a way to stop this behavior?


  Post your authldaprc file and tell us about your LDAP backend (OpenLDAP, AD, 
NDS?)...
