The configuration guide describes (in 4.3.) a scenario where SOGo's user
population backend (LDAP) is set up from scratch, which implies that the
preexisting IMAP server supposedly is *not* using the same
backend/data/passwords.

I'ld guess that *if* you have the IMAP server configured to look up the
same backend/data (including support for exotic authentication methods,
"Exchange style" cross-user access rights management, yadda yadda), the
requirement to defeat authentication from SOGo to the IMAP server may
become moot.

But until then - Exchange takes its entire auth from AD, and SOGo's
LDAP, *not* the IMAP server's passdb, is the analogue of that.
